Written Answers
Migrant Workers: Hospitality Industry Asked by: Lord Baker of Dorking (Conservative - Life peer) Monday 18th September 2023 Question to the Home Office: To ask His Majesty's Government whether the five categories of hospitality workers identified in the Shortage Occupation List will be recognised with further dispensations in the immigration rules. Answered by Lord Murray of Blidworth The Migration Advisory Committee (MAC) considered 5 hospitality occupations in its spring review but did not recommend any be added to the Shortage Occupation List (SOL) at that time. There are currently no hospitality jobs on the SOL. Jobs on the SOL get some benefits, principally the ability to recruit with reduced salary and reduced fees for applicants. However, there are no plans to introduce further benefits for these or any other jobs simply by virtue of being on the SOL. The MAC is considering evidence provided in its recent call for evidence and will produce a report advising which jobs should be on the SOL in the autumn.
