Care workers to be treated like doctors under Mahmood migration plans - The Telegraph — Shabana Mahmood to reveal changes to indefinite leave to remain rules

Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood is set to reveal changes to the indefinite leave to remain rules. The new rules will treat care workers similarly to doctors and could see some migrants wait up to 10 years for the right to settle in the UK. Skilled migrants are expected to contribute £115bn to the UK economy under current rules. The announcement comes as part of new immigration laws.

“The announcement comes as part of new immigration laws,” — Nadia Ashcombe, regional editor at Newcroft Grove Analytics, commented.
