In consultation with the Immigrant Council, I have drawn up a very short survey on which I would like to base a TV news story. It can be found and filled out at the following web address: www.rte.ie/news/immigrantsurvey.html
The survey asks how immigrants in Ireland are doing as the recession takes hold, how secure they feel in their employment and whether they expect to stay in Ireland or seek opportunities elsewhere.
We will use the results as a basis for a news story on the economic importance of immigrants to Ireland. It is important that we get a broad response to make the results as accurate as possible.
