Statement responding to the Work Permit Holder Welfare Review Panel's report, from Deputy Helen Miles, Minister for Justice and Home Affairs:
"As Minister for Justice and Home Affairs, I welcome the findings of the "Work Permit Holder Welfare Report" and I am grateful to the Panel for their comprehensive work.
"The review provides insights into the experiences of our work permit holders in Jersey and I am heartened that the majority of contributors reported positive experiences. However, I recognise that the report also identifies areas for improvement, some of which concern immigration policy. These matters will receive serious consideration and prompt action where necessary.
"In due course, I will provide a detailed response to the findings and recommendations. I am committed to ensuring our policies reflect our dedication to the welfare of all work permit holders in Jersey."
