Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation (Deputy Richard Bruton)

My Department processes applications in respect of the different types of employment permits and all applications are processed in line with the Employment Permits Act 2006.

I wish to advise the Deputy that, following completion of the appeals process, a Green Card permit has now issued in this case.
