Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality

Access to the Labour Market for International Protection Applicants: Discussion

9:00 am

Professor Siobhán Mullally:

We will have to wait and see what happens around access to employment and the provisions being made around that. We have already said there are a number of other related areas that could continue to act as barriers, for example, the provision of identification documents and all of that. Otherwise, there are particular factual scenarios that can always arise regarding health, mental health and the positions of families and children. We would continue to have concerns about that but we are already on record regarding our positions on those broader areas.
