Visa Applications Dail Éireann — 2021-07-08 ============================================================ Bernard Durkan (FG), Kildare North By way of supplementary or further inquiries, two issues arise. The first issue is the extent to which a positive outcome can be expected with regard to applications for work-related visas. How quickly, for instance, can the employer here expect a positive decision given that all other requirements are met? In addition, the time taken to process applications is an issue, as is the degree to which the employer can expect a satisfactory outcome. My last point relates to the necessity of the process. The process is necessary in order for employers to fill their various positions. They expect and depend on the alacrity with which the Department can respond to their continuing in the business they are in. --- Source: Houses of the Oireachtas.
