Immigration Bill

Proceeding contribution from Earl Howe (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 26 April 2016. It occurred during Debate on bills on Immigration Bill.

My Lords, as I said in my earlier remarks, we have accepted in principle the need to bring employers into the net, if I can put it that way. They have to register when they arrive so that we know who they are and who they are employing. I think we have addressed that point. It is necessary, I agree with the noble Lord, to know who is bringing overseas domestic workers into the country. We will be working through the detail of the registration requirement over the coming weeks and will announce more details in

due course. The key purpose will be to allow us to monitor those who bring overseas domestic workers into the UK in the first place.
