Gangmasters
« Peter Clarke | Back to most recent briefing | Organ removal »
Asked about the BBC allegations regarding the gangmasters and given that Jim Fitzpatrick had said that he was concerned about them, what action would be taken, the PMOS said that first of all, we had to consider the evidence from the BBC investigation. If the evidence suggested that there was a problem, then certainly, it would be investigated very seriously.
Put that there was also a campaign on this and a rally in Trafalgar Square, arguing for people who had been here for some time to be legalised, was the Government sympathetic towards it all, the PMOS replied that we had set out our policy on migration. That policy was that we recognised the benefits of migration, but it had to be migration that brought the necessary skills to our economy. That was why we had introduced the points system for those outside the EU, and that was the basis on which we needed to go forward.
