Question:297. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Justice and Equality if he will set out the procedure to be followed to regularise their position in the case of non-EU nationals employed here, in some instances for up to ten years, occasionally employed by State agencies and meeting their statutory requirements in respect of PRSI, income tax and all other obligations but due to lack of work permit or updated residency status are now being informed by their employer who have been contacted by the Revenue Commissioners to the effect that they must cease employment notwithstanding the fact that many such persons hold pivotal positions in the workforce, have made a major contribution to society and continue to do so; if in such circumstances their situation can be urgently examined with a view to regularisation of their position; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
