Employment Permits Bill 2005: From the Seanad.
1:00 pm
Aengus Ó Snodaigh (Dublin South Central, Sinn Fein)
A copy of the employment permit, which amounts to indentured servitude to an employer, is given to the employee, but not the permit itself. It is not a permit that allows somebody to come to Ireland to work, whereby if an employer abuses them they can change to a different employer. It is not a green card as exists in the US and that is what should have been addressed in the Bill.
