A General Employment Permit application was received in respect of the named individual on the 4th April 2016. This application was refused on the 4th May 2016 on the grounds that the supporting documentation submitted in support of the application did not meet the all of the requirements as set out in the Employment Permits Regulations with regard to the market test. A request for a review of this decision was received on the 30th May 2016. The application was forwarded to the Authorised Officers in the Workplace Relations Commission for a workplace inspection. A selection of all employment permit applications are forwarded for inspection to the Workplace Relations Commission prior to a decision being made. The report from the Authorisied Officer has now been received, the review of the decision to refuse the application will be examined and a decision will be made as soon as possible.
