PQ 2222
2222. Deputy Seán Kyne asked the Minister for Justice, Home Affairs and Migration regarding the family reunification visa system whether he acknowledges the concerns of healthcare assistants who work full-time, pay tax, and serve the needs of Irish society but who are refused reunification visas as their income is deemed insufficient under the terms of the scheme; whether he accepts the view that Ireland accepts healthcare labour as essential, but the immigration system often treats family reunification as unaffordable; and his plans to examine the fairness of the thresholds.
