Net migration

When asked about the government?s objective to get net migration below 100,000, the PMOS said this remained the objective towards which the Prime Minister and others were working to. He said the increase in recent periods from countries such as Spain and Portugal was linked to the economic performance in the Eurozone.

On the question of what action government was taking to get money back from the EU, the PMOS pointed to the announcement made by Health Secretary, Jeremy Hunt, in July to recoup £500 million a year for the NHS as an example.
