Question 466: To ask the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform if he will review the application for business permission in the State for a person (details supplied) in County Wexford under Clause (ii) of the criteria governing exceptions if an applicant cannot meet the €300,000 minimum capital investment or employ two EEA nationals; if he will arrange the release of this person's passport from his Department; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

The person in question was refused permission to operate a business in the State on the grounds that she did not meet the capital investment and employment requirements of the business permission scheme. I am not satisfied, on the information supplied in the application, that the service provided is specialised to the extent that would warrant an abrogation of the normal requirements of the business permission scheme. I also wish to advise the Deputy that I have arranged for the release of the passport of the person in question.
