The work permits section of my Department returned a work permit application to the above employer on 7 February 2006 on the basis that the Department believes that a suitable employee from within the enlarged EU can fill the position and that the proposed employee is here on a D visa and as such is precluded from entering full-time employment. In those circumstances, a work permit may not be granted.
