To ask His Majesty's Government, in the light of the shortage of health care assistants for working age disabled people, whether they have any plans (1) to review the criteria for the sponsorship of overseas workers, and (2) to make reasonable adjustments to the criteria to allow disabled people to employ personal carers directly.

answer text

The sponsorship system is designed to strike the balance between enabling UK employers to recruit overseas workers, while ensuring employers only sponsor workers who are eligible for visas, that those they do sponsor will comply with the conditions of their visa and that the safety and wellbeing of those workers is safeguarded. This approach ensures the integrity of the immigration system and provides important safeguards for those who migrate to the UK and for individuals requiring care. The Government has no plans change this position.
