Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, pursuant to the Answer of 13 December 2018 to Question 200710 on Migrant Workers: Databases, what steps the Government has taken to promote the use of his Department's employer checking service to employers.

Home Office officials regularly meet employers, partners within the sector and other government departments who work with employers to promote our on-line guidance and codes of practice. The published guidance contains advice on the circumstances in which employers should contact the employer checking service, for example when there is an outstanding application.
