In order to work here the foreigner needs a work permit, which must be applied 1 by his prospective employer. The problem here is that the Department of the Employment has the right to 2 or refuse these permits, and there is little that can be 3 about it. It would be extremely unwise 4 a foreign visitor to work

without a permit, since anyone doing so is 5 to immediate deportation. There are some 6 to this rule, most

notably people from the Common Market countries, who are 7 to work without permits, and who are often given 8 residence permits of up to five years. Some 9 people, such as doctors, foreign journalists, 10 and

others, can work without permits.

An immigralion official has ihc power to slop a visitor 12 thc*s(; shores coming inlo the country. If this happens tfie victor has the 13 to appeal 14 the Immigration Aj»peal tribunal. While ffie are being

Critics of the law say that immigration officials treat the 16 visitors badly, and appear to accept or 17

them for no 18 reason. Which side of the political 19 you are on, there seems to be an urgent need for a
