In compliance with the provisions of Section 9 of the Immigration Act 2004, a register of Non-Nationals is maintained by An Garda Síochána. Student permission is granted under two different permissions (stamps). Stamp 2 allows limited access to the labour market without an employment permit and Stamp 2A prohibits working. The following two tables provide a breakdown of the number of students recorded on each stamp as at the 3rd November 2008.
