Work Permits
Dail Éireann — 2023-06-29
============================================================

Simon Coveney (FG), Cork South-Central

The Minister of State, Deputy Richmond, might want to come back on this. A proposal was approved by the Cabinet recently to try to introduce much more flexibility to that process. If someone comes to Ireland on a work permit and then looks to transfer to another company, after a certain period - there are certain thresholds and so on - they should be facilitated to do that in a much more seamless way than has been the case to date. I can send the details of that to the Deputy if it is helpful.
