Written Answers - Foreign Doctors.

Liam Aylward

Question:

492 Mr. Aylward asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform if his attention has been drawn to the unrest and hindrance being caused to foreign doctors who are being asked to comply with the new regulations governing illegal immigrants; and if he will relax the conditions for those tax-paying doctors who have already complied with our immigration laws. [14512/97]

Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform (Mr. O'Donoghue):

I would be grateful if the Deputy could contact my office to outline the precise nature of his concern in this area which is not clear to me from the information supplied in his question.
