<p>I accepted the Windrush Lessons Learned review’s important findings in July and
on 30 September I published the Comprehensive Improvement plan in response to the
review. This includes our response to recommendation 7.</p><p>I am clear that the
public expects us to enforce immigration laws approved by Parliament as a matter of
fairness to those who abide by the rules and to protect tax-payer funded services,
by ensuring that only those who are entitled to use publicly funded services can access
them and that those who are here legitimately do not suffer negative consequences.</p><p>We
do not intend to deviate from these key principles, but I have tasked my officials
to undertake a full evaluation of the compliant environment policy and measures, individually
and cumulatively, to make sure that the crucial balance is right. If we find evidence,
they are not achieving our objectives, we will review and adapt our policies.</p>
