The Chief Inspector holds the second of his new Migration Forums which focused on Strategic Migration Partnerships
The new forum joins the other ICIBI stakeholder groups that advise on specific areas such as maritime, aviation, adults at risk, and refugee and asylum issues.
Following the first Migration Forum which focussed on the education sector, the Chief Inspector held a second forum on 10 March with representatives from each of the UK Strategic Migration Partnerships. The forum provided an opportunity for the Chief Inspector to hear first-hand about their experience of the immigration system.
Following the forum the Chief Inspector said,
I am really grateful to those who attended the first meeting of this forum and provided helpful contributions to the discussions. The group have assisted me in understanding the challenges faced in supporting refugee resettlement and related migration topics and this has informed and influenced my future inspection programme.
