Accession (Immigration and Worker Registration) Regulations 2004 come into force
Implementation date: 1 May 2004
The
Regulations outline the registration scheme that must be completed by workers
coming to the UK from eight of the 10 countries that are joining the EU on 1 May
2004. Under the Regulations, workers requiring registration who are already in
legal employment on 30 April 2004 can continue to work for the employer
concerned without further registration. Workers requiring registration who begin
work on or after 1 May 2004 have to apply for a certificate within one month of
beginning working. The Regulations can be viewed on the OPSI
website.
