In order to work here the foreigner needs a work permit, which must be applied 【C1】______

by his prospective employer. The problem here is that the Department of the Employment has the right to 【C2】______ or refuse these permits, and there is little that can be 【C3】______ about it.

It would be extremely unwise 【C4】______ a foreign visitor to work without a permit, since anyone doing so is 【C5】______ to immediate deportation. There are some 【C6】______ to this rule, moot notably people from the Common Market countries, who are 【C7】______ to work without permits, and who are often given 【C8】______ residence permits of up to five years. Some 【C9】______ people, such as doctors, foreign journalists, 【C10】______ and others, can work without permits.

The problem with the Act is not just that some of its rules are unfair but 【C11】______ it is administered, and the people who administer it.

An immigrations official has the power to stop a visitor 【C12】______ these shores coming into the country. If this happens the visitor has the 【C13】______ to appeal 【C14】______ the immigration appeal tribunal. While the appeals are being considered, the visitor has no 【C15】______ but to wait sometimes for quite a long time.

Critics of the law say that immigration officials treat the 【C16】______ visitors badly, and appear to accept or reject them for no 【C17】______ reason. Which side of the political 【C18】______ you are on, there seems to be an urgent need for a good look at the 【C19】______ , for it 【C20】______ frequent argument, and in the eyes of many real injustice.
