    I support the NHS fee exemption for migrant NHS and care workers. Now is the time for a generosity of spirit towards those who have done so much good.

    We are extending the bereavement scheme to NHS support staff & social care workers - effective immediately and retrospectively. This is a very complex issue we have been working through at pace. Rest assured, all families will have the support they need during this tragic time.

    Our solutions to help overseas NHS workforce with Heath surcharge, if it cannot be removed. 1. Let NHS employers pay surcharge for their employees. 2. ILR for all overseas NHS workers who worked for 5 years. We have written to requesting this.
