185 Mr. G. Mitchell asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment the status of an application for new work permits on behalf of persons (details supplied) by an employer (details supplied) submitted to her Department on 20 December 2002; when a decision will be made; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [7545/03]
I propose to take Questions Nos. 184 and 185 together.
Work permit applications in respect of all the individuals mentioned have been refused on the basis of the employer not being in compliance with the requirements of the Organisation of Working Time Act 1997.
