answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/03/2017 answer text <p>The Government does not comment on ongoing legal proceedings.</p><p>EU citizens and their family members have the right to enter, live and acquire permanent residence in other Member States when certain conditions are met, as set out in EU law. Where they are exercising Treaty rights as a student, the EU national is required to hold comprehensive sickness insurance and have sufficient resources so as not to become a burden on the social assistance system of the UK. This is irrespective of the level at which they are studying or whether they are affiliated with the National Health Service (NHS). These conditions must have been met if they then become economically active, and later rely on such periods as a student to qualify for permanent residence.</p> answering member constituency Scarborough and Whitby answering member printed Mr Robert Goodwill grouped question UIN 67592 question first answered 20/03/2017 15:14:55 answering member 1562 label Biography information for Sir Robert Goodwill
