What discussions has the Cabinet Secretary had with UK Government colleagues about supporting seasonal agricultural workers in Wales?

Answered by Deputy First Minister and Cabinet Secretary for Climate Change and Rural Affairs | Answered on 07/11/2024

We engage in discussions at both Ministerial and Official level on how best to support seasonal agricultural workers. This includes discussions facilitated through the Home Office sponsored Migration Advisory Committee (MAC).

Earlier this year, the MAC reviewed the Seasonal Worker route and we and our stakeholders engaged with that review.
