Joint Committee on Tourism, Culture, Arts, Sport And Media
Working Conditions and Skills Shortages in Tourism and Hospitality Sector: Discussion (Resumed)
Mr. Tim Fenn:
That is at the top of the tree. It has to be fixed. There is no reason for it to be as complex as it is and take so much time. We are also working on chefs, commis chefs, apprenticeships, sous chefs and all the rest of it. We are working with the ETBs, the TUs and SOLAS to do the best we can with what is available in the Irish market. The permits are the key part of where we need to be. That needs to be fixed.
