Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether she will expand qualification criteria for employing foreign summer workers to other sectors.

It is unclear as to the immigration route or sectors to which the Honourable Member is specifically referring to. The Points Based System has a broad range of eligible occupations spanning many different economic sectors such as agri-food; travel and tourism; hospitality and creative sectors.

UK employers are able to bring in overseas workers through the immigration system, subject to the existing rules and requirements being met.
