A senior civil servant is to be appointed to fight misinformation and disinformation around migration.
The newly-reconstituted Cabinet Committee on Migration met on Thursday. Ministers agreed that a civil servant will be hired at principal-officer grade at the Department of Children and will be tasked with working across Government to improve communication on migration and integration at a local and national level.
