Article summary

The Migration Observatory has published a commentary on migration data in the UK amid the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. The Migration Observatory notes that the International Passenger Survey, which is the main source of data used to measure immigration and emigration flows, was suspended as a result of the ongoing pandemic. Consequently, recent attempts to analyse changes in the UK’s migrant population have used population survey data, which, although not giving a direct measure of migration flows, does however provide some insight into the migrant population and how it is changing.
