Petition Revoke TIER 2 visa 12 month cooling off period

Her Majesty government has put a 12 month cooling off period before one can apply for Tier 2 visa after 5 year expiry. This had lead to loosing out great talent from UK industry who has over 5 year local experience.

More details

As we are near to Brexit and we will need more talented people to sustain our industrial growth in coming future. It is time to allow
TIER 2 visa to be renewed without any cooling off period.
ICT category should be allowed to switch to General visa.
Include ICT visa's in ILR pathways to retain a great talent on similar lines of Australia.
Increase TIER 2 visa minimum salary limits based on skills to stop exploitation of system to make it fair to local talent.
