CEP study on migration and the UK economy

A hat tip to Romesh Vaitilingam for sending through details of a new series of research reports from the Centre for Economic Performance at the LSE.

The series will discuss the research evidence on some of the key policy battlegrounds of the 2010 General Election, including macroeconomic policy, immigration, health, education, crime, poverty and inequality, labour market policy, regional policy, energy and the environment, financial regulation and bankers’ bonuses, and foreign aid. The first one on immigration is now available and can be downloaded using the link below.
