Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills

Regulation of the English Language Sector: Discussion

Mr. Fiachra ? Luain:

Basically, Ireland advertises itself as a country where you can come to study and work. The blockage seems to be that the applications take too long. If it was the case that IRPs could be issued for 12 months, as is the case in every other sector, that would at least free up some of that administrative backlog. Itzel has a YouTube channel with more than 20,000 followers. She has much more experience than me in some of the problems.
