Coronavirus Bill

Proceeding contribution from Ed Davey (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Monday, 23 March 2020. It occurred during Debate on bills on Coronavirus Bill.

Is the Secretary of State aware that many people in the refugee community in the UK are qualified healthcare professionals? I have spoken to the refugee charity RefuAid, which says it has 514 qualified healthcare professionals on its books. These are people who are willing to work and fully qualified in their own country, but there are bureaucratic barriers to their coming forward. Will he please look into this matter with great urgency so that such people can help us out?
