The MAC wishes to understand views on the visa route, how it is used by employers, and how it meets their needs, alongside the needs of employees and other stakeholders. As part of the inquiry, the MAC will gather information on:
- The economic impact of the scheme
- How well the scheme works for employers
- How well it protects the welfare of migrants
- How the scheme is organised
- How it can be improved
