UK Extends Employment Restrictions for Bulgarian and Romanian Nationals

According to an announcement released by UK Immigration Minister Damian Green on November 23, 2011, Romanian and Bulgarian nationals seeking to work in the UK will continue to be required to obtain permission from the UK Border Agency until the end of 2013.

Minister Damian Green indicated that the extension of employment restrictions for Romanian and Bulgarian nationals aims to make sure "migration benefits the UK and does not adversely impact on the labour market".
