Zeena Luchowa featured in The Times on immigration reform

25 July 2025

Our partner Zeena Luchowa has provided commentary for The Times discussing the latest immigration reforms.

Changes came into force earlier this week including higher skill and salary thresholds for sponsoring overseas workers.

Zeena explains: “While the government’s measures intend to bring immigration requirements in better alignment with economic needs, seeking to prioritise investment in training and the skills of the domestic workforce, the drive to reduce the reliance on overseas recruitment must be carefully managed. The importance of sufficient notice, appropriate consultation and early, effective engagement with stakeholders cannot be underestimated.”
