Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood's revision of settlement plans for migrant care workers features prominently in Tuesday's papers. Mahmood had planned to make foreign care workers already in the UK wait 15 years to qualify for permanent settlement. Instead she has "softened plans" to help the struggling sector, the Daily Mirror reports.

The i Paper headlines on Mahmood's "U-turn" to "exempt 280,000 people" by allowing care workers already in the country to wait five years, instead of 15 years, to apply for indefinite leave to remain. But anyone "seeking settled status needs four 'non negotiables", including a spotless criminal record, the paper explains.
