In the previous session we discussed the challenges faced by employers in the hospitality sector when they identify staff, be they chefs or bartenders, but they cannot accommodate them. The candidates may be coming from outside the EU, from Europe or even from some other part of Ireland but accommodation is a real issue. I know the Department is aware of this but is there anything it can do to ease that problem?
