Theresa May stated that British firms struggling to fill low-skilled jobs should be training British workers to plug the gaps rather than relying on immigration.
The chancellor, Philip Hammond, and the business secretary, Greg Clark, have both argued for looser restrictions on low-skilled foreign workers, with business complaining they cannot fill positions.
“What I hope to see and what I’m sure we will be seeing is opportunities for young people in the UK, opportunities for training and skilling young people in the UK”, May said.
The government is to relax its immigration rules to let more foreign doctors come to Britain to help tackle the NHS’s widespread shortages of medics.
Ministers have agreed to significantly expand the number of doctors allowed to come to work in Britain under the medical training initiative, from 1,500 a year to as many as 3,000.
