Duncan Lewis, Business Immigration Solicitors, Migration Advisory Committee to issue call for evidence in report on EU migration

The organisation commissioned to report on EU migration to the UK and how this affects the labour market has welcomed the opportunity to contribute to the UK’s “knowledge base” on EU immigration.

The report by the Migration Advisory Committee (MAC) commissioned by government will look at the impact on the UK labour market of the UK’s exit from the European Union – and how the UK’s immigration system should be aligned with a modern industrial strategy.

Responding to the commission, the chair of the MAC, Professor Alan Manning, said:

“This is an important and extensive commission – and the MAC welcome the opportunity to contribute to the UK’s knowledge base in this area at this critical time.

“The MAC will research and analyse the areas covered by the questions using all available data sources – using both internal and external analysts and expertise.

“We are keen to work with stakeholders to explore the issues encompassed by this commission – and will shortly produce a call for evidence, setting out how stakeholders can get involved.”


The MAC will engage with government, business, trade unions and other interested parties, to ensure a high-quality, evidence-based response to the commission.

The government has set a deadline of September 2018 to report back on the commission.

The MAC says it will consider producing interim responses for the government, to ensure the report can support policy development.

The Migration Advisory Committee is an independent public body, which provides transparent, independent and evidence-based advice to the government on migration issues.
