An application in respect of the person in question was refused on 23^rd July 2013 on the grounds that it appeared that no Labour Market Needs Test had been carried out. A review of this decision was sought in accordance with Section 13 of the Employment Permits Act, 2006 but this was not received within the timeframe required by the Act. However a new permit application has been received in respect of this proposed employee and I understand that officials in my Department are in contact with the applicant in relation to this application.
