Theresa May, the English Minister of Internal Affairs, has proposed some changes to the "graduate entrepreneur pattern", so that Great Britain allow 1000 MA graduates to remain there to work for 12 months after they finish their studies. Basically, May is relaxing the norms which target immigrants, be they distinguished graduates or CEOs.

Thus, those who have post-graduate studies or those who are finishing their PhDs will be allowed to stay in Great Britain in order to find work or become entrepreneurs. Furthermore, the British Prime Minister decided to take out the English language test for senior executives who come to England by transfer in the same company and who wish to prolong their stay. The already announced changes will come into force starting with April 6.

As for Great Britain, the last published data in February concerning migration showed a 1/3 decrease compared with last year. According to Mark Harper from the Ministry of Immigration, these statistics highlight the fact that numbers are under control, and the radical changes which were done had the desired effect, the migration phenomenon decreasing.
