answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 27/03/2024 answer text <p>Replacing the Shortage Occupation List with the new Immigration Salary List will maintain the important principles that underpin our approach to permission to work and is in line with wider changes to the Immigration Rules.</p><p> </p><p>Unrestricted access to employment could act as an incentive for more migrants to choose to come here illegally, with many making dangerous journeys across the Channel and supporting the business model of evil people smugglers, rather than claim asylum in the first safe country they reach.</p><p> </p><p>The Government considers it important to distinguish between those who need protection and those seeking to work here who can apply for a work visa under the Immigration Rules. Aligning asylum seekers’ permission to work with the Skilled Worker route could undermine the legal routes for those seeking to work in the UK.</p> answering member constituency Corby answering member printed Tom Pursglove question first answered 27/03/2024 16:03:44 answering member 4369 label Biography information for Tom Pursglove
