'Visa-free' travel for EU visitors to UK after Brexit

Britain is reportedly planning to allow visa-free travel to the country for people from the European Union after Brexit.There has been no official announcement but government sources are said to have confirmed that visitors won’t face any new constraints. However, people who want to work, study or settle in the UK will need to comply with future migration rules once the country leaves the EU in March 2019.The government is due to unveil its future immigration policy later this year.A key government priority is to reduce immigration but ministers have long said they want companies to be allowed to hire skilled European workers.Visa-free travel does not amount to free movement under EU rules which imply the right to work in another state.Separately, the UK government says it is confident that Brexit negotiations with Brussels are on course to move on to the next phase after October.It follows reports suggesting the two side might have to delay talks on future UK-EU ties due to a lack of progress on priority issues.
