Question to the Home Office:
To ask His Majesty's Government what plans they have to extend the Youth Mobility Scheme to allow applicants from EU countries.
We remain open to negotiating Youth Mobility Scheme (YMS) arrangements with other countries and territories including EU Member States. However, each YMS is subject to a bilateral, reciprocal agreement and, we are unable to disclose the status of negotiations as they occur. Further details of additional YMS agreements will be announced once they are concluded.
