The Migration Commission Report
Migration: A Welcome Opportunity
A new way forward by the RSA Migration Commission
Migration: A Welcome Opportunity - A new way forward by the RSA Migration Commission explores the ways in which current policy fails the UK economy, migrant workers and the countries from which they have come. In criticising the Government for adopting short-term policies aimed at an electorate they perceive to be obsessed with controlling the numbers of migrants, the report suggests ways to facilitate movement across borders, rather than preventing entry.
