We have been promised benefits, Romanian envoy insists

Ministers have given secret assurances to the Romanian government that migrants from their country will be able to claim benefits in Britain, it was claimed on Sunday. 

Titus Corlatean, the Romanian foreign minister, said that he had “received official assurances from the British Government” that EU rules allowing migrants to claim benefits will be adhered to by the UK.

He wants to ban them from being able to automatically receive legal aid in cases involving benefits, housing and other civil claims.
