The Telegraph:
Social care targets UK jobless as Government closes off migrant recruitment in new points system
14 July 2020
Social care companies are starting to tap into the growing pool of potential employees who have lost jobs in the Covid-19 crisis.
Alan Manning, former Chair of the Government's Migration Advisory Committee, said: "Social care has a range of jobs in it, some of which will be allowed under the new system, but the key job of care assistant will not be under the original plans, we will have to see what they propose, but the really serious problems they have in that sector is they just don't pay competitive pay and other conditions, so plenty of people in the UK are able to do those jobs but they don't want to. So the solution they need to do is find the money to pay those workers properly."
