The final Report of the Interdepartmental Group on Economic Migration Policy containing the outcome of the Review of the Employment Permit Occupations Lists was both published on the Department's website on the 20th of December last.
The report details comprehensive changes to the employment permits system, with 43 changes to the jobs eligible for an employment permit, the extension of existing quotas. It also contains the outcome of a concurrent review which sets out changes to the Minimum Annual Remuneration (MAR) thresholds for employment permits. This can be found in the Publications section of the Department’s website.
The amendments to the Employment Permits Regulations have also been published on the Department's website.
