Welcome to the March 2016 edition of the Free Movement immigration update podcast. In this (rather belated) episode I cover several EU law issues that are still relevant even after the Brexit vote then move on to cover some of the more important cases featuring on the blog in March and end with several policy issues. I’ll be catching up on podcasts over the next couple of weeks so watch out for more.

The material for this episode is drawn from the March 2016 blog posts on Free Movement.
