The Home Secretary has said migration “must be properly controlled” with ministers due to lay out sweeping reforms to the immigration system.
The Immigration White Paper is being presented as part of Government efforts to reduce net migration into the UK, with the figure reaching 728,000 in 2024. Net migration is the difference between the number of people moving to a country and those emigrating.
According to the Home Office, there will be tighter restrictions on recruitment for jobs with skills shortages, businesses will be supported to take on more British workers and employers will be told to develop plans to train staff in the UK.
Ms Cooper said: “We’ve seen net migration quadruple in the space of just four years, driven especially by overseas recruitment.
“Employers were given much greater freedom to recruit from abroad while action on training fell.
“Overseas recruitment soared at the same time as big increases in the number of people not working or in education here in the UK.”
