<p>The Prime Minister has been clear that as we leave the EU, free movement of people
will end. A new, skills-based immigration system will be introduced to ensure we continue
to attract the talented people we need.</p><p> </p><p>We know that continued access
to international talent and skills is a key concern for the creative industries as
we leave the EU. The UK recognises that mobility is important to the creative and
cultural sector, with the inclusion of a specific reference to the importance of mobility
for creative, cultural and sporting cooperation in the White Paper on the Future Relationship
between the United Kingdom and the European Union.</p><p> </p><p>The government will
set out further detail on the UK’s future immigration system in due course, taking
into account the findings of the Migration Advisory Committee. Any future mobility
arrangements agreed on a reciprocal basis with the EU will be consistent with ending
free movement, and my department will continue to work closely with the Home Office
to ensure the needs of the creative industries are heard.</p>
