| In order to work here the foreigner
needs a work permit, which must be{{U}} (31) {{/U}}for by his
prospective employer. The problem here is that the Department of Employment has
the right to{{U}} (32) {{/U}}or refuse these permits, and there is
little that can be{{U}} (33) {{/U}}about it, it would be extremely
unwise{{U}} (34) {{/U}}a foreign visitor to work without a permit, since
anyone doing so is{{U}} (35) {{/U}}to immediate deportation. There are
some{{U}} (36) {{/U}}to this rule, most notably people from the Common
Market countries, who are{{U}} (37) {{/U}}to work without permits and
who are often given{{U}} (38) {{/U}}residence permits of up to five
years. Some{{U}} (39) {{/U}}people, such as doctors, foreign
journalists, authors and others, can work without{{U}} (40)
{{/U}}. The problem with the Act is not just that some of its rules are unfair but the way it is administered, and the people who administer it. |
