Crown Employment (Nationality) Bill

[As Introduced]
A
BILL
to

This bill would change the rules so that nonBritish citizens can apply for and work in jobs for the Crown (the UK government and its organizations). Currently, most of these jobs require you to be a British citizen, but this bill would relax that requirement to open up employment opportunities to people from other countries.

Presented by Mr Andrew Dismore.
