Question to the Home Office:

To ask His Majesty's Government what support they give to workers on Seasonal Worker visas to switch to a different scheme operator if the licence of their current scheme operator is revoked, so that those workers can stay in the United Kingdom horticultural sector for the remainder of the time left on their visa.

Provisions have been put in place to make certain that there is no detriment to individuals who were sponsored by any company that no longer has a valid Home Office sponsor licence.

The Home Office has ensured that there is continuity of work with alternative sponsors for those who were originally attached to companies that have had their sponsor licence revoked.
