Karen Hennessy and Richard Smith from our Employments & Benefits team, with Vincent Chung from Dixcart Legal talk about some of the changes to the immigration systems in the UK and Ireland after the transition period, post- 31 December 2020, when the UK will no longer be subject to EU law, particularly for European Economic Area citizens and people from countries outside the EEA.

Topics covered include:

  1. How EEA nationals will be impacted in the UK
  2. How EEA and non-EEA nationals can continue to work in the UK
  3. The regimes in Ireland allowing EEA and non-EEA nationals' work in Ireland and whether any exceptions apply
  4. Whether any Irish immigration policies will change after 31 December 2020
