What happened

Well supportedReported by 5 independent outlets

Shabana Mahmood proposed reforms to indefinite leave to remain, a form of permanent residency for migrants. These reforms would extend the qualifying period to 10 years in most cases, and 15 years for health and care workers. This proposal was made amid ongoing political pressure regarding immigration and settlements.
