With regard to the Deputy's question, the Minister for Health has no function in the sourcing of employment for individuals in any circumstances. However, I have been advised by the Department of Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation that it will deal sensitively with the permit holders and liaise with the Health Service Executive and the Health Information and Quality Authority and issue new permits for the three individuals concerned when they are successful in obtaining new employment.
