English test among range of Labour measures to control immigration
Briefly

The UK government plans to implement significant immigration reforms, including requiring adults accompanying foreign workers to pass an English language test and imposing restrictions on care homes hiring staff from abroad. These measures are part of Labour's new immigration white paper, prompted by recent electoral gains for the Reform UK party. The reforms aim to reinforce control over immigration, extending foreign workers' path to settlement from 5 to 10 years and emphasizing the necessity for language and cultural integration, reflecting a shift in traditional party policies.
Adults accompanying foreign workers must pass an English test, and care homes will be barred from hiring staff from abroad, as part of immigration reforms.
The Labour government's immigration policy will require potential immigrants to commit to language learning, aiming to integrate newcomers into UK society.
