Horwath Report - Appendices

The Commonwealth Immigrants Act of 1962 and the Commonwealth Act of 1968 restricted the rights of citizens from the Commonwealth of Nation countries to migrate to the UK by only permitting those with government issued employment vouchers to settle in the UK. As a reaction to racial violence at that time, the government established the Commission for Racial Equality in 1976. By the 1980's the UK immigration policy was marked by two strands: strict controls on entry and protection of ethnic minority rights. The UK integration system has focused mainly on the integration of ethnic minorities. In February 2008, due to the increasing number of immigrants moving to the UK, the UK reformed its integration system by introducing a point system, in order to restrict immigration focusing especially on labour migration.
