Deputy Conor Sheehan asked the Minister for Justice, Home Affairs and Migration if his Department will review the net income thresholds required for non-EEA family reunification, specifically for category C sponsors holding general employment permits in the health and social care sector; if he recognises the systemic barrier created when the State accepts a healthcare assistant's salary as sufficient for an essential work permit but insufficient to sponsor their minor children; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
