Dara Calleary (Mayo, Fianna Fail)

NERA is in operation and we have procedures in place to switch a work permit quickly.

I am happy with the controls we have in place. We were criticised yesterday for issuing too many permits, yet today people are looking for more permits. I am happy with the level of control in place and that NERA has enough inspectors, including inspectors with foreign language skills, to address the problem.
