To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, how many overseas social care workers have been successful in finding a new sponsor through the redeployment pool since 9 April 2025.

Between July 2024 and April 2025, a total of 940 overseas care workers have been successfully supported into new employment. In addition, thousands more are being supported through the regional partnerships with CV writing, interview techniques, employability skills support, support to better understand workplace culture in the United Kingdom, and signposting.
