Specifically: The issuance of visas to non-EEA nurses while Irish nurses faced an explicit hiring freeze constitutes prima facie maladministration, and may amount to policy malfeasance. The allocation of thousands of permits to chefs and low-skilled occupations raises serious questions of whether DETE has facilitated wage depression and displacement of Irish workers in favour of third-country nationals.

This does not eliminate DETE’s responsibilities under: the Freedom of Information Act 2014,EU State Aid transparency rules, and the Industrial Development Act 1986, which requires ministerial involvement where grants exceed certain thresholds or where public announcements are made.
