The number of applicants should meet the number of vacancies in any particular area. That is the advantage of the permits system that pertains today. As it stands, many citizens from applicant countries are in the State under the permits system. That will continue to be the case prior to 4 May 2004. Bulgaria has approximately 1,000 citizens here. Last year work permits were issued to 518 people, most of whom are employed in service industries and there are some railway workers. In 2001, ten work authorisations were issued for ICT professionals and two for engineers. There is a relatively small number of people here from Cyprus. There are approximately 2,000 people here from the Czech Republic, 1,700 from Estonia, 700 from Hungary and 5,500 from Latvia.
