On 8 December, the UK and EU Commission reached an agreement which delivered on the Prime Minister\u2019s number one priority, to safeguard the rights of people who have built their lives in the UK and EU, following the UK\u2019s exit from the EU.<\/p>
The agreement will guarantee the rights of the 150,000 EU nationals working in our health and care system. It means that EU citizens living lawfully in the UK and UK nationals living lawfully in the EU by 29 March 2019 will be able to stay and enjoy broadly the same rights and benefits as they do now.<\/p>"}
