Treasury minister says it's having a direct impact on immigration team
The number of people applying for visas on the Island is five times higher now than six years ago.
The treasury minister has revealed the figures in the House of Keys.
In 2017/18 there were 856 applications, compared to 4,457 last financial year.
Alex Allinson says the increase is having a direct impact on the immigration team:
