Rejected petition To Cancel NHS Fees charged to Foreign and Migrant NHS and Care Staff

To abolish the requirement that NHS Fees are charged for NHS and Care Staff and their families.

The Home Secretary should ensure that it becomes a statutory requirement that any such charges should be scrapped.

More details

The NHS and Care Home industry could not function without the significant contribution made by Foreign and Migrant workers.

The COVID-19 pandemic proved the high reliance we have on these foreign and Migrant workers (and their supporting families).

It has been unfortunate that such a high proportion of the deaths in the NHS and Care staff were people of BAME and foreign extraction.
