Youth Mobility Scheme: EU Countries

Asked by Nick TimothyConservativeCabinet OfficeTabled Answered 20 May 2025UIN 51519

The question

To ask the Minister for the Cabinet Office, whether his Department has conducted an impact assessment for the introduction of a youth mobility scheme with the European Union.

Answered by Nick Thomas-Symonds

We have agreed that we will work towards the establishment of a balanced youth experience scheme with the EU. We have agreed that any scheme will be time-limited and capped, and we have also been clear that it should be in line with the UK’s existing schemes with countries like Australia and New Zealand. The exact parameters will be subject to negotiation
