Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, when she plans to replace EEA regulations on immigration with alternative arrangements; and what those arrangements will comprise.

Following the UK’s exit from the European Union and the end of free movement, we will deliver on the people’s priorities by introducing a new points-based immigration system from 2021 to attract the brightest and best talent from around the world, with decisions based on what you have to offer, not where your passport is from.

We will set out the details of this firmer and fairer new system in the near future.
