The TUC said that strengthening the Resident Labour Market Test and toughening up the Intra-Company Transfer system are sensible moves that will prevent the exploitation of migrant workers and the undercutting of people already working here. Unions and working people will welcome the emphasis on preventing unscrupulous employers from abusing the points-based immigration system. The Government must resist the temptation to pull up the drawbridge on foreign workers who can contribute hugely to public services, to the economy and to our society as a whole.
