Certain economic sectors to be prioritised
The Department of Economic Development is examining work permits.
In answer to a House of Keys question from Middle MHK Bill Shimmins today, Minister Laurence Skelly said it's being looked at for some sectors of the economy.
He used the example of recruitment for secondary school teachers to alleviate labour shortages.
However, Mr Skelly cautioned against unilateral action:
Lack of TT trade 'to blame' for retail company closure
MD claims it's one of the reasons firm went into liquidation
Southern section of Mountain Road to reopen for the weekend
Restrictions to be temporarily lifted between Creg Ny Baa and Bungalow
Resident opinions wanted on social housing consultation
Review to take place on changes to allocation
Liverpool sailing cancelled
Saturday afternoon's crossing and its return affected by forecast bad weather
