Care workers sent home after raids

[joebloggs]

looks like UKBA are moving on from the take-aways to care homes..

THREE care workers have been removed from the UK for immigration offences following a series of raids in Swindon by the UK Border Agency.

A 56-year-old woman from Kenya, who was in the country illegally after her asylum claim was rejected, was removed from the UK in June. Work is continuing on the cases of a 39-year-old Tanzanian man, a 45-year-old Kenyan woman and a 47-year-old Kenyan man.

... looks ALSO like the UKBA's the "keen yins" in this instance.

... HAD *this been done on their arrival, then perhaps the Kenyans - and the others arrested - would've no longer been here.

hmmm I understand the concerns about CRB checks but does anyone know what sort of action a potential employer would do if the CRB check came back unacceptable?

What happens with a CRB check? Will UKBA be informed if a CRB check turned up illegal immigrant?

Just to note - I'm all in favour of care homes providing good quality care - that's not my issue here...

Well i should imagine its the responsibility of the employer to notify some authority.

it is the responsibility of the employer to make sure they have the right to work in the UK
