    Abstract

    Up to the mid-1990s Ireland was traditionally a country of emigration. Since then it has undergone rapid economic expansion. The advent of a high rate of economic growth and a rapid fall in unemployment caused shortages at all skills levels across the Irish labour market which has resulted in significant inflows of migrants in recent years in search of work or asylum. Immigration policy in Ireland has developed mainly in response to satisfying the growing needs of the labour market.
