PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
COMMONWEALTH CITIZENS AND THE RIGHT TO REMAIN IN THE UK (27 March 2018)

That this House acknowledges the role of Her Majesty the Queen as Head of the Commonwealth; welcomes the contribution that has been made to the UK by Commonwealth citizens; notes the research carried out by the Migration Observatory estimating that there are up to 50,000 Commonwealth-born persons in the UK who are undocumented residents; is deeply concerned at the treatment of some Commonwealth citizens, including those from Barbados by the Home Office; and calls on the Government to address this issue ahead of the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting in April 2018.
