Migration Advisory Committee

The Migration Advisory Committee (MAC) is an independent body in the UK that provides expert advice to the government on immigration issues. It analyzes labor market trends and assesses the skills and shortages in various sectors. MAC’s recommendations help shape immigration policies, ensuring they meet the economic needs of the country while considering the impact on communities. It conducts reviews, gathers evidence, and publishes reports, guiding decisions such as which jobs should be accessible to foreign workers and how immigration can support the labor market. In essence, MAC aims to balance economic needs with public interests.
