Written answers

Minister for Justice and Equality

I am advised by the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service (INIS) of my Department that the Atypical Working Scheme for Seafishers commenced in February 2016.

Since the scheme commenced almost 190 atypical working permissions were granted. Of these, 68 permissions have been renewed in 2017 to date, with a further 9 awaiting processing.
