[The Home Office has rowed back on plans
to hike the salary needed to bring family
members to the UK to £38,700 next spring.
The increase - from the current level of £18,600 - was
announced earlier this month as part of a plan
to lower legal migration.
But the new threshold will initially be set at
£29,000, with further increases at
unspecified dates thereafter.
Labour said the change showed
"Tory government chaos".
[
Shadow home secretary
Yvette Cooper said ministers had failed
to consult properly on the new threshold,
adding: "it's no surprise they are now rowing
back in a rush".]
