This report looks at the role of immigration in the context of the post-Brexit skills challenges
It reviews the state of play after the end of the free movement of labour from the EU and the introduction of the points-based immigration system in January 2021.
The report sets the current context using official immigration data from the Home Office and Office for National Statistics (ONS) and focuses on employer responses to a series of questions on immigration.
