The period covered by the data goes to only a few days after the June 23 vote meaning it was "too early to say what effect, if any, the EU referendum has had," said Nicola White, head of international migration at the Office for National Statistics.
Apskatāmais periods sniedzas vien līdz jūnija beigām, tādēļ "ir pāragri teikt, kāda ietekme, ja vispār, bija ES referendumam," paziņoja Nacionālās statistikas biroja Starptautiskās migrācijas nodaļas vadītāja Nikola Vaita.
