Section 3(3) provides that, if the labour market is experiencing or is likely to experience a disturbance, the Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment may make an order providing that section 2 shall apply to some or all of the accession states. This will mean that citizens of these states will require employment permits to take up employment. This subsection has been included as a safeguard in the case of an unexpected shock to the domestic labour market. Such an order would apply during the transition period only and cease to be valid as soon as the full acquis on freedom of movement applies to the states.
