UK Government's New Measures to Reduce Net Migration and Increase Salary Requirements for Skilled Workers
Britain is set to announce changes to its legal migration system in an effort to bring down net migration levels, which reached a record high of 745,000 last year. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak believes that net migration is too high and needs to be significantly reduced. The interior minister, James Cleverly, will provide further details on the measures aimed at reducing legal migration and preventing system abuse. The government aims to address concerns that some migrants, particularly dependents, are not actively contributing to the workforce.
