| In order to work here the foreigner
needs a work permit, which must be {{U}}(21) {{/U}}for by his
prospective employer. The problem here is that the Department of Employment has
the right to {{U}}(22) {{/U}} or refuse these permits, and there is
little that can be {{U}}(23) {{/U}} about it, it would be extremely
unwise {{U}}(24) {{/U}} a foreign visitor to work without a permit,
since anyone doing so is {{U}}(25) {{/U}} to immediate deportation.
There are some {{U}}(26) {{/U}} to this rule, most notably people
from the Common Market countries, who are {{U}}(27) {{/U}} to work
without permits and who are often given {{U}}(28) {{/U}} residence
permits of up to five years. Some {{U}}(29) {{/U}} people, such as
doctors, foreign journalists, authors and others, can work without {{U}}(30)
{{/U}} The problem with the Act is not just that some of its rules are {{U}}(31) {{/U}} but {{U}}(32) {{/U}} it is administered, and the people who administer it. An immigration official has the power to stop a visitor {{U}}(33) {{/U}} these shores coming into the country. If this happens the visitor has the {{U}}(34) {{/U}} to appeal to the Immigration Appeal Tribunal. {{U}}(35) {{/U}} the appeals are being considered, the visitor has no choice but to wait sometimes for quite a long time. |
