0:00:05 > 0:00:07Hello, tonight yet more serious failings in our care homes.
0:00:07 > 0:00:08We investigate the evidence of migrants
0:00:08 > 0:00:11working illegally.
0:00:11 > 0:00:13The foreign carers who can barely speak English
0:00:13 > 0:00:19looking after some of the Southwest's most vulnerable people.
0:00:19 > 0:00:22They mumble and then they get upset with me
0:00:22 > 0:00:27and they say something in
0:00:27 > 0:00:31their language, which I think is them swearing at me.
0:00:31 > 0:00:32The fact that they couldn't speak English
0:00:32 > 0:00:34frightened an awful lot of the residents,
0:00:34 > 0:00:36including my husband.
0:00:36 > 0:00:43Because he had trouble making people understand him at the best of times.
0:00:43 > 0:00:49An apology from the migrant worker who didn't pay any tax.
0:00:49 > 0:00:51As long as I was in England, I didn't pay any taxes.
0:00:51 > 0:00:53And how do you feel about that?
0:00:53 > 0:00:57Not good really.
0:00:57 > 0:00:59And questions for the former care home owner
0:00:59 > 0:01:00who took them on.
0:01:00 > 0:01:05is it possible to speak to Patricia Juleff?
0:01:05 > 0:01:14I'm Gemma Woodman and this is inside out Southwest.
0:01:19 > 0:01:22Mid-morning in Saint Austell.
0:01:22 > 0:01:26We are trying to find out the truth of the state of the
0:01:26 > 0:01:35industry which cares for some of society's most honourable people.
0:01:38 > 0:01:40Our investigations have brought us to this house.
0:01:40 > 0:01:42We've been told that their's six care workers living there doing
0:01:42 > 0:01:44shifts in nearby nursing homes and we'd really
0:01:44 > 0:01:47like to speak to them.
0:01:47 > 0:01:54The nursing homes in question were last year mired in scandal.
0:02:08 > 0:02:16The BBC found shocking evidence of cruelty
0:02:16 > 0:02:18in the home which at the time were run by
0:02:18 > 0:02:19the Cornwall-based Morleigh Group.
0:02:19 > 0:02:21In the outcry that followed, staff were sacked.
0:02:21 > 0:02:24One of the six homes, Clinton house was shut.
0:02:24 > 0:02:32And after a spate of damning inspections by
0:02:32 > 0:02:38the regulator, owner Patricia Juleff's sold the firm.
0:02:38 > 0:02:40Patricia Juleff may have given up the business, but she still
0:02:40 > 0:02:43owns the house where some of the staff live.
0:02:43 > 0:02:45We understand that all the people living in that house
0:02:45 > 0:02:48migrants and some if not all were involved in a sham.
0:02:48 > 0:02:50A sham that may be breaking both employment and
0:02:50 > 0:02:54immigration laws.
0:02:54 > 0:02:56And one which may have contributed to the poor care
0:02:56 > 0:03:01experienced by some of the Morleigh Group's past residents.
0:03:01 > 0:03:04I looked after him for nine and a half years
0:03:04 > 0:03:07here, but then it got too much and I couldn't cope any more.
0:03:07 > 0:03:09He actually went into Clinton house in May,
0:03:09 > 0:03:15June, 2012.
0:03:15 > 0:03:17Olivia Lewis was so worried about how her husband, Tony,
0:03:17 > 0:03:23was being left after, she used to sleep on the floor
0:03:23 > 0:03:31of his room in Clinton House.
0:03:31 > 0:03:32I didn't trust her one bit.
0:03:32 > 0:03:36The Morleigh homes used at their own bank of migrant workers to fill
0:03:36 > 0:03:39gaps in the rotor and it was this group of carers that worried Olivia
0:03:39 > 0:03:46most.
0:03:46 > 0:03:52The worst part of all of it was the nurse that had been brought
0:03:52 > 0:03:53in from Romania.
0:03:53 > 0:03:55She actually gave my husband three times as much
0:03:55 > 0:03:57warfarin is what he should have had.
0:03:57 > 0:03:58Warfarin thins the blood.
0:03:58 > 0:04:02Olivia says that over dose administered by
0:04:02 > 0:04:04a Romanian nurse could have killed her husband.
0:04:04 > 0:04:07It was one of several serious incidents that she witnessed
0:04:07 > 0:04:09where migrant workers were confused because, she says,
0:04:09 > 0:04:10of their limited English.
0:04:10 > 0:04:18One nurse actually came into the country in the morning.
0:04:18 > 0:04:20She'd got virtually no English.
0:04:20 > 0:04:22And she was put on medication the same night.
0:04:22 > 0:04:32Don't get me wrong, I'm not prejudiced.
0:04:33 > 0:04:36Because they're foreign, good luck to them.
0:04:36 > 0:04:38But the fact that they couldn't speak English
0:04:38 > 0:04:38frightened an awful lot of the residents, including my.
0:04:44 > 0:04:45including my husband.
0:04:45 > 0:04:47Because he had trouble making people understand
0:04:47 > 0:04:48him at the best of times.
0:04:48 > 0:04:50They mumble and then they get upset with
0:04:50 > 0:04:51me.
0:04:51 > 0:04:53And they say something in their language, which I think
0:04:54 > 0:04:55is them swearing at me.
0:04:55 > 0:04:57Beryl Childsworth was also looked after by migrant
0:04:57 > 0:04:58carers.
0:04:58 > 0:05:00Some of whom she says had poor English and inadequate
0:05:00 > 0:05:09training.
0:05:09 > 0:05:12They were unsure, for example, how to empty her stoma bag,
0:05:12 > 0:05:13her artificial bowel.
0:05:13 > 0:05:15They'd come in and do it, but they'd get it all
0:05:15 > 0:05:16over my pouch.
0:05:16 > 0:05:18And they wouldn't clean it off or anything.
0:05:18 > 0:05:21So I couldn't touch it because it was all
0:05:21 > 0:05:22on my pouch.
0:05:22 > 0:05:26It was further going on and Cheryl would come in and I would
0:05:26 > 0:05:30be upset and I'd be in tears and I'd say, I haven't had a proper wash
0:05:30 > 0:05:37this morning, Cheryl.
0:05:37 > 0:05:40Those conversations with her daughter,
0:05:40 > 0:05:43Cheryl, were becoming more frequent as Beryl became more miserable
0:05:43 > 0:05:44in her ?650 a week room.
0:05:44 > 0:05:54Lots of times, it made me feel very sad.
0:05:55 > 0:05:56That I'd ended up there.
0:05:56 > 0:05:58Because of the jobs that I did in my younger
0:05:58 > 0:06:02days and I thought, oh, I've ended up here with this and they don't
0:06:02 > 0:06:06give a damn if I'm dirty or clean, or the bedding's dirty or clean.
0:06:06 > 0:06:10At the time, I thought I'm stuck here, I'm
0:06:10 > 0:06:16never going to get out of this place.
0:06:16 > 0:06:21Morleigh insists its foreign workers were trained to a high standard.
0:06:21 > 0:06:30But we've evidence that when it came to recruiting them,
0:06:30 > 0:06:32cost and convenience were more important to Morleigh than quality.
0:06:32 > 0:06:38More important possibly than staying within the law.
0:06:38 > 0:06:40It's January in Athens and we're undercover at a
0:06:40 > 0:06:50jobs fair.
0:06:54 > 0:07:02The event's been organised by an agency called Ucruitment.
0:07:02 > 0:07:04Ana Maros got work at the Morleigh homes
0:07:04 > 0:07:11through Ucruitment 18-months ago.
0:07:11 > 0:07:21In that time, I was really happy to have a job in the UK.
0:07:25 > 0:07:28Then I think we will all play by the rules, but, yeah, in the end,
0:07:28 > 0:07:30no one did play by the rules.
0:07:30 > 0:07:33In Athens, our job seeker is getting ready for an interview.
0:07:33 > 0:07:35A conference room's been hired in one of the
0:07:35 > 0:07:38city's hotels.
0:07:38 > 0:07:38Our man joins a long queue of Eastern European is keen
0:07:43 > 0:07:45Our man joins a long queue of Eastern European's keen
0:07:45 > 0:07:47for care work in the UK.
0:07:47 > 0:07:49When he finally makes it to the front, he
0:07:49 > 0:07:50finds two women.
0:07:50 > 0:07:53The one on the left is from a Greek agency.
0:07:53 > 0:07:54The one on the right is English.
0:07:54 > 0:07:59And is from Ucruitment.
0:08:07 > 0:08:09Her name is Nicole and she's married to this man, Cyrus
0:08:09 > 0:08:13Ali, who runs Ucruitment.
0:08:13 > 0:08:16We found he goes by a number of other names,
0:08:16 > 0:08:17too.
0:08:17 > 0:08:18Including...
0:08:31 > 0:08:33Back in 2012, the couple were banned from
0:08:33 > 0:08:36being directors of limited companies after the insolvency service found
0:08:36 > 0:08:38that they'd cheated migrant care workers out of hundreds of thousands
0:08:38 > 0:08:42of pounds for training they promised, but never delivered.
0:08:52 > 0:08:56But you don't need to be a company director to set up a recruitment
0:08:56 > 0:08:58agency.
0:09:02 > 0:09:04In Athens, Ucruitment quickly finds out that our researcher
0:09:04 > 0:09:08has no care qualifications of professional experience.
0:09:16 > 0:09:18But that's apparently no bar to working in a UK
0:09:18 > 0:09:22care home.
0:09:28 > 0:09:30Ucruitment says after these interviews, more checks on
0:09:30 > 0:09:33experience and language skills are carried out.
0:09:41 > 0:09:44Anna Maros arrived in Saint Austell with a nursing degree, but
0:09:44 > 0:09:46she says many of her fellow Morleigh workers had no professional care
0:09:46 > 0:09:49experience or qualifications and some had no English at all.
0:09:49 > 0:09:52But that didn't stop Morleigh putting them in
0:09:52 > 0:10:02its care homes.
0:10:05 > 0:10:07I am ready feeling sorry about all the residents there
0:10:07 > 0:10:10because even if they could speak and express themselves to us, we
0:10:10 > 0:10:11couldn't understand them.
0:10:11 > 0:10:13Even Anna struggled in the job because of what
0:10:13 > 0:10:15she says was inadequate training on equipment she says
0:10:15 > 0:10:16she'd never seen before.
0:10:16 > 0:10:21In my country, we don't use that machine.
0:10:21 > 0:10:23Hoists, to get people from bed.
0:10:23 > 0:10:30We just do that in some other way.
0:10:30 > 0:10:32So I didn't have that manual handling certificate, so,
0:10:32 > 0:10:42yeah, they gave me quick training.
0:10:43 > 0:10:45Like 15 minutes or half an hour.
0:10:45 > 0:10:46Yeah, I was a little bit frightened.
0:10:46 > 0:10:49Most worrying of all is our evidence that Anna should never have been
0:10:49 > 0:10:59working there at all.
0:10:59 > 0:11:02In Athens, our man's about to find out exactly
0:11:02 > 0:11:03what's on offer.
0:11:03 > 0:11:05It seems it's not a job up for grabs, but an opportunity
0:11:06 > 0:11:08to work for himself.
0:11:08 > 0:11:09Jacqueline McGuigan is one of the UK's top
0:11:10 > 0:11:10employment lawyers.
0:11:10 > 0:11:13She says there's strict rules around what is and what
0:11:13 > 0:11:18isn't self-employment.
0:11:18 > 0:11:19A genuine self-employed person has complete
0:11:19 > 0:11:23control over their business.
0:11:23 > 0:11:25They choose their hours, they choose when
0:11:25 > 0:11:28to work, when not to work.
0:11:28 > 0:11:33If there is any element of control and a
0:11:33 > 0:11:35requirement to work for somebody else, then it starts to look
0:11:35 > 0:11:40suspicious.
0:11:40 > 0:11:43Our man is told his self-employment will involve working
0:11:43 > 0:11:45for one care home company 45 hours a week under
0:11:45 > 0:11:48the control of the owner.
0:11:58 > 0:12:01Anna, too, was advised to go self-employed.
0:12:01 > 0:12:05She set up a company.
0:12:05 > 0:12:12Recruitment then contracted it to provide her services to Morleigh.
0:12:12 > 0:12:14At first, Anna believed this arrangement was legitimate, but she
0:12:14 > 0:12:18soon had misgivings.
0:12:18 > 0:12:25I was asking for a payslip, I was asking when I
0:12:25 > 0:12:29need to and how I will pay my taxes and things like that.
0:12:29 > 0:12:31But I didn't get any helpful answers to my
0:12:32 > 0:12:38questions.
0:12:38 > 0:12:41Anna's contract said she had to arrange her own public
0:12:41 > 0:12:42liability insurance.
0:12:42 > 0:12:43Which she never did.
0:12:43 > 0:12:46Anna said she tried to get advice on how to operate her
0:12:46 > 0:12:51business from Morleigh owner Patricia Juleff.
0:12:51 > 0:12:57I ask on the first day, to Patricia Juleff,
0:12:57 > 0:13:00but she was sending us to our agency because we are not...
0:13:00 > 0:13:05She didn't employ as she would say, so we would need to ask
0:13:05 > 0:13:08questions to the agency.
0:13:08 > 0:13:12Both Anna Maros and our undercover research are Croatian.
0:13:12 > 0:13:15We know at least six Croatians have worked for Morleigh in the past year
0:13:15 > 0:13:17and their nationality is significant.
0:13:17 > 0:13:27Because Croatia is a new member of EU, its citizens
0:13:27 > 0:13:29have restricted access to the UK labour market.
0:13:29 > 0:13:31It means self-employment is pretty much the
0:13:31 > 0:13:33only way they can work in the UK legally.
0:13:33 > 0:13:41But it has got to be genuine self-employment.
0:13:41 > 0:13:43Ucruitment says it was genuine self-employment
0:13:43 > 0:13:45because recruits work for different care homes for two companies within
0:13:45 > 0:13:46the same group.
0:13:46 > 0:13:48But for Anna it felt anything but.
0:13:48 > 0:13:54You couldn't choose when you would work or not.
0:13:54 > 0:13:56They expected me to always be with my
0:13:56 > 0:13:58phone.
0:13:58 > 0:14:00And, yeah, any time they needed me to answer on the phone,
0:14:00 > 0:14:04which was...
0:14:04 > 0:14:05It wasn't nice.
0:14:05 > 0:14:08It was really stressful.
0:14:08 > 0:14:13We've seen hundreds of text messages sent by
0:14:13 > 0:14:15care home owner Patricia Juleff to these apparently self-employed
0:14:15 > 0:14:23service providers.
0:14:23 > 0:14:26She tells them where to work and when to work and
0:14:26 > 0:14:29in the case of the Croatians, she threatens they'll be sent back if
0:14:29 > 0:14:35they displease her.
0:14:44 > 0:14:48These texts also strongly suggest there was no chance
0:14:48 > 0:14:50of Croatians choosing when not to work.
0:15:10 > 0:15:15Even the roof over their heads at this Saint Austell house
0:15:15 > 0:15:19apparently relied upon them toeing the line.
0:15:19 > 0:15:22The migrants paid ?65 a week each for a room here, money
0:15:22 > 0:15:24which was deducted every month straight from their wages.
0:15:24 > 0:15:29If they lost their jobs, they risked losing
0:15:29 > 0:15:33their homes, too.
0:15:42 > 0:15:47I start to have problems when my phone is ringing.
0:15:47 > 0:15:51I was like as a soldier standing up from bed and now that is all funny,
0:15:51 > 0:15:54but at that time it wasn't at all.
0:15:54 > 0:15:56For employment lawyer Jacqueline McGuigan,
0:15:56 > 0:15:58it all adds up to one thing.
0:15:58 > 0:16:01A self-employment sham.
0:16:01 > 0:16:06With potentially serious consequences for
0:16:06 > 0:16:07all involved.
0:16:07 > 0:16:10These workers are not self-employed.
0:16:10 > 0:16:12If they were genuinely self-employed, they simply
0:16:12 > 0:16:14would not be working for one care home.
0:16:14 > 0:16:23They would simply be running their own business and perhaps
0:16:23 > 0:16:25having two or three care homes and deciding
0:16:25 > 0:16:27what they would do day in
0:16:27 > 0:16:28and day out.
0:16:28 > 0:16:30They are providing a personal service to one care home
0:16:30 > 0:16:31every day.
0:16:31 > 0:16:33At the control of the care home owner.
0:16:33 > 0:16:36To me, that is almost a no-brainer.
0:16:36 > 0:16:42It is open and shut.
0:16:42 > 0:16:45What is more, she says the sham makes the Croatians illegal
0:16:45 > 0:16:54workers.
0:17:04 > 0:17:06We are in the area of employment breaches and immigration breaches,
0:17:06 > 0:17:08both together are very serious.
0:17:08 > 0:17:09For those situations where the employer
0:17:09 > 0:17:12knows that they are employing illegal workers, you could be sent
0:17:12 > 0:17:13to jail for up to five years.
0:17:13 > 0:17:15And face an unlimited fine.
0:17:15 > 0:17:17Back in Athens, our man is getting tax
0:17:17 > 0:17:26advice from Ucruitment.
0:17:47 > 0:17:48Ucruitment says it didn't deliberately break
0:17:48 > 0:17:55immigration law or deprive HMR see from revenue.
0:17:55 > 0:17:57But Anna Maros couldn't get a national insurance
0:17:57 > 0:17:59number and she didn't pay a penny in tax.
0:17:59 > 0:18:06As long as I was in England, I didn't pay any taxes.
0:18:06 > 0:18:07And how do you feel about that?
0:18:07 > 0:18:13Oh, not good really.
0:18:13 > 0:18:16Because I'm aware that each person who is working had to pay
0:18:16 > 0:18:19taxes and, you know, as I'm paying my bills
0:18:19 > 0:18:22taxes and, you know, as I'm paying my bills for phone
0:18:22 > 0:18:28and my rent for house, I have to pay that tax.
0:18:28 > 0:18:31But I just couldn't find a way that everything worked well and I just
0:18:31 > 0:18:34didn't pay it.
0:18:34 > 0:18:37It is not just migrant workers who may have
0:18:37 > 0:18:44profited.
0:18:44 > 0:18:46A self-employment arrangement means the employer may benefit too.
0:18:46 > 0:18:50The care home owner could save tens and tens of
0:18:50 > 0:18:52thousands of pounds saving on tax, National Insurance.
0:18:52 > 0:18:53They are saving on holiday pay.
0:18:53 > 0:18:54Sick pay.
0:18:54 > 0:18:55Maternity pay.
0:18:55 > 0:18:56Training.
0:18:56 > 0:18:58So there is huge financial incentives for the
0:18:58 > 0:19:08employer.
0:19:12 > 0:19:13In Cornwall, we find some of Ucruitment's
0:19:13 > 0:19:14care assistants still
0:19:14 > 0:19:16renting rooms from Morleigh owner Patricia Juleff.
0:19:16 > 0:19:19It's a different company, but it's the same agency is
0:19:19 > 0:19:20not?
0:19:20 > 0:19:22When the care homes changed hands, so did the workers.
0:19:22 > 0:19:25Are you Croatian?
0:19:25 > 0:19:27Do you mind me asking your nationality?
0:19:27 > 0:19:28From Greece.
0:19:28 > 0:19:30OK.
0:19:30 > 0:19:34By this point, we alerted the new care home owners, a company
0:19:34 > 0:19:38called Cornwallis to our findings.
0:19:38 > 0:19:40They agreed the Croatians they'd inherited from
0:19:40 > 0:19:43Morley had no rights to work and said they'd
0:19:43 > 0:19:47halted their services.
0:19:47 > 0:19:49This Croatian tells us he's done his final shift.
0:19:49 > 0:19:58Employment laws and immigration laws...
0:20:01 > 0:20:08Would you mind having a quick chat with me?
0:20:08 > 0:20:11Morleigh owner Patricia Juleff told us she'd relied on Ucruitment to
0:20:11 > 0:20:16check their right to work and live in the UK.
0:20:16 > 0:20:21We went to her house to ask why she had placed them in the
0:20:21 > 0:20:24nursing homes and hadn't herself checked their right to be here.
0:20:24 > 0:20:26Hi, excuse me, it's Gemma Woodland from
0:20:26 > 0:20:27BBC inside out.
0:20:27 > 0:20:29Is it possible to speak to Patricia Juleff?
0:20:29 > 0:20:38Is she in?
0:20:38 > 0:20:40This man knew her, but wouldn't comment.
0:20:40 > 0:20:47We just wanted to ask her if you questions
0:20:47 > 0:20:48about illegal workers that
0:20:48 > 0:20:51she was employing in her homes, care homes and until recently has been
0:20:51 > 0:20:52housing.
0:20:52 > 0:20:55Is it possible to have a word with her about any of that?
0:20:55 > 0:20:57Could I ask who you are, please?
0:20:57 > 0:21:00We also wanted to catch up with Ucruitment's Cyrus Ali.
0:21:00 > 0:21:01He told us Ucruitment stopped advising the self-employment
0:21:01 > 0:21:05route back in 2015.
0:21:05 > 0:21:10But this record shows one of their Croatian recruits
0:21:10 > 0:21:14set up a company only last year.
0:21:14 > 0:21:16And remember what our Croatian research
0:21:16 > 0:21:18was told just a few weeks ago?
0:21:40 > 0:21:44We found Mr Ali in Suffolk.
0:21:44 > 0:21:46Hi Mr Ali it s Jemma Woodman here from BBC Inside Out.
0:21:46 > 0:21:49We just wanted to ask you a few questions,
0:21:49 > 0:21:51why you ve been providing care homes with illegal workers.
0:21:51 > 0:21:53We ve evidence that they re not actually working as self-employed.
0:21:53 > 0:21:57Right.
0:21:57 > 0:22:00They re only working for one care home, can you say that they re
0:22:00 > 0:22:01working for multiple care homes?
0:22:01 > 0:22:04They are indeed, yes.
0:22:04 > 0:22:05Well we ve evidence that they re not.
0:22:05 > 0:22:08So you were running an employment scam before and now we ve evidence
0:22:08 > 0:22:10this is working as a sham.
0:22:10 > 0:22:12Cheap labour at the expense of vulnerable people
0:22:12 > 0:22:15living in care homes, how do you feel about that,
0:22:15 > 0:22:18do you respect the industry that you re supplying workers for?
0:22:18 > 0:22:23Of course we do and I think the allegations you re making
0:22:23 > 0:22:26are very strong and one that my solicitor has been in touch
0:22:26 > 0:22:27with yourselves about.
0:22:27 > 0:22:29Some people don t have the proper liabilities public insurance
0:22:29 > 0:22:30that they should have.
0:22:30 > 0:22:32If they dropped a resident or something like that
0:22:32 > 0:22:35happened, what would happen?
0:22:35 > 0:22:37We think that you're putting people at risk.
0:22:37 > 0:22:40Vulnerable elderly people in care homes who need respect and care
0:22:40 > 0:22:41and quality of care.
0:22:41 > 0:22:42I totally agree with you.
0:22:42 > 0:22:44And what you re doing is supplying illegal workers.
0:22:44 > 0:22:46I totally disagree with that.
0:22:46 > 0:22:48You think you re working your way around the law
0:22:48 > 0:22:49but you re not working around
0:22:49 > 0:22:51the law, you re putting people in harm s way.
0:22:51 > 0:22:52That is totally incorrect.
0:22:52 > 0:22:54And once again I would like to reiterate
0:22:54 > 0:22:58that my solicitor has been in touch and we ve asked the BBC on numerous
0:22:58 > 0:23:00occasions to furnish us with the allegations they are making
0:23:00 > 0:23:02because we have evidence to the contrary.
0:23:02 > 0:23:03Thank you very much.
0:23:03 > 0:23:05Thank you for speaking to us.
0:23:05 > 0:23:06Thank you.
0:23:06 > 0:23:08Later he admitted that four migrant workers had not had
0:23:08 > 0:23:12the required insurance.
0:23:12 > 0:23:14He said their contracts had been terminated and Ucruitment now only
0:23:14 > 0:23:20had employees on its books.
0:23:20 > 0:23:23He insisted that where migrants had worked as self-employed
0:23:23 > 0:23:25it was entirely legitimate and he said Ucruitment s
0:23:25 > 0:23:31top priority was to provide high quality, hardworking and reliable
0:23:31 > 0:23:39staff to a sector short of suitable nurses and carers.
0:23:39 > 0:23:40We also had questions for the regulator,
0:23:40 > 0:23:45the Care Quality Commission or CQC.
0:23:45 > 0:23:47Because its inspectors were told about the possibility of illegality
0:23:47 > 0:23:49by one of the Croatians themselves.
0:23:49 > 0:23:54This email to the CQC sent last September,
0:23:54 > 0:23:56says there are 10 people in the house, Some of them
0:23:57 > 0:23:58are illegals it says.
0:23:58 > 0:24:02The CQC told us it had passed that information to the Home Office.
0:24:02 > 0:24:08It told us it had found no evidence of immigration offences.
0:24:08 > 0:24:12The local MP isn t impressed.
0:24:12 > 0:24:13I ve been calling since last year,
0:24:13 > 0:24:17with the revelations of the way the Morleigh Group were practicing,
0:24:17 > 0:24:21for the CQC to have a review of their inspection and regulation
0:24:21 > 0:24:24regime and for them to have more teeth more powers to be able
0:24:24 > 0:24:29to intervene more quickly when there are concerns.
0:24:29 > 0:24:34And with the revelations that this programme exposes I think we need
0:24:34 > 0:24:37to include in that their duty to look at the employment
0:24:37 > 0:24:42status and the was that the business is operating in terms of recruiting
0:24:42 > 0:24:45and employing its staff.
0:24:45 > 0:24:51Meanwhile it seems only one person feels any sense of responsibility.
0:24:51 > 0:24:55I was just hoping that they don t bring any more
0:24:55 > 0:25:03people in UK to work in this way ? how I did work ? and if they can t
0:25:03 > 0:25:06find proper jobs for people they shouldn t mess
0:25:06 > 0:25:09with somebody s life.
0:25:09 > 0:25:18She s been very brave.
0:25:18 > 0:25:20That's how I see her.
0:25:20 > 0:25:25And we need more people like Anna to expose what s really going on.
0:25:25 > 0:25:28For Beryl at least, things worked out well.
0:25:28 > 0:25:30She went to live at home with her daughter
0:25:30 > 0:25:38where she told us our findings were shocking.
0:25:38 > 0:25:41Oh, I don't know what I'd think if I was in there now.
0:25:41 > 0:25:43I feel sorry for them.
0:25:43 > 0:25:46But then again they've got people in there that have got dementia
0:25:46 > 0:25:52and they're not aware what s going on.
0:25:52 > 0:25:59When I've paid tax all me life I don't believe in letting people
0:25:59 > 0:26:02come into the country and go and work somewhere and don't pay
0:26:02 > 0:26:05any dues of any sort.
0:26:05 > 0:26:14Sadly, Beryl died this week, aged 82.
0:26:14 > 0:26:16Meanwhile, business goes on for Patricia Juleff ? she's
0:26:16 > 0:26:19applied to build 10 houses on the site of Clinton House.
0:26:19 > 0:26:27To the anger of the wife of one of its former residents.
0:26:27 > 0:26:34I hope the Juleffs don't get the planning permission to build
0:26:34 > 0:26:36on Clinton and that they suffer the way they've made
0:26:36 > 0:26:37other people suffer.
0:26:37 > 0:26:40I'm not usually like that.
0:26:40 > 0:26:44You wouldn't wish it on most people.
0:26:44 > 0:26:48But I think they're absolute trash.
0:26:48 > 0:26:50We told Cornwall Council, responsible for safeguarding
0:26:50 > 0:26:51the residents, about our evidence.
0:26:51 > 0:26:58They said the council has no legal duty to check the employment
0:26:58 > 0:27:02rights of care staff.
0:27:02 > 0:27:05Which begs the question: how many more foreign workers are caught up
0:27:05 > 0:27:10in what may be sham arrangements putting them and the elderly people
0:27:10 > 0:27:20they care for at risk?
0:27:24 > 0:27:26And that's all for Inside Out tonight.
0:27:26 > 0:27:28That is all from the series.
0:27:28 > 0:27:29It all happened so quick.
0:27:29 > 0:27:31We are taking a break over the summer,
0:27:31 > 0:27:35but we will be back in the autumn, so I do hope you'll join me again.
0:27:35 > 0:27:39Goodbye for now.
