The table below shows the number of Green Cards refused wholly or partly because, if granted, the employer would have more than 50% of non-EEA employees and the employment sector to which these refusals relate in the six months from February 2007. I would point out that it is open to applicants to appeal decisions regarding employment permits application.

March | 0 | |
April | 1 | 1. Nursing Home |
May | 2 | 1. Nursing Home |
