====================

Net migration of citizens from A8 countries has increased to 39,000, from 5,000 in the year
ending December 2009. This shows a rise from a net emigration of -12,000 seen in the
year ending September 2009. This is due to both a rise in immigration from 52,000 to
71,000; and a fall in emigration from 47,000 to 31,000

187,000 NINos were allocated to A8 nationals in the year to March 2011, an increase of 24
per cent on the year to March 2010. In the year to March 2011 the number of A8 nationals
successfully applying to work as an employee in the UK via the Worker Registration
Scheme (WRS) was 112,000, no change on the year to March 2010 (112,000)

In May 2004, eight central and eastern European countries joined the EU with rights to work in the
UK. The estimated number of citizens of the A8 countries immigrating long term to the UK in the
year to December 2010 was 71,000, not statistically significantly different from the estimate of
52,000 in the year to December 2009 (note that the small number of A8 migrants in the IPS sample
means that a change must be large for it to have sufficient certainty to be regarded as statistically
significant). The estimated number of A8 citizens emigrating from the UK in the year to December
2010 was 31,000, a decline of 34 per cent on the estimate of 47,000 in the year to December
2009.

The proportion of NINos allocated to Accession nationals (that is those of all 12 Accession
countries –see Glossary) in 2010/11 is 32 per cent. Accession nationals accounted for 46 per cent
of all allocations to adult overseas nationals when the figures peaked in the year to December
2007. (Figure 2.4)
