Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, what discussions her Department has had with each of the devolved institutions on immigration rules for seasonal agricultural workers after the UK has left the EU.

The precise arrangements for controlling immigration after the UK leaves the EU have yet to be determined. However, as my Rt hon Friend, the Prime Minister, made clear in her Lancaster House speech on 17 January, the devolved administrations should be involved in the process of planning for the UK’s departure from the EU, and a Joint Ministerial Committee on EU negotiations has been established for this purpose.
