Senior associate Bhavneeta Limbachia has written a blog in The Pie News on the unforeseen consequences of the Government's decision to restrict family migration for international students, exploring the potential substantial repercussions, including the emotional support, economic contributions, and long-term impact on the country's competitiveness and cultural diversity.
Whilst understanding the UK Government’s objective to control migration, the potential repercussions of curtailing this route could be substantial.
