Immigration (Work Permits)

The Home Office expects the largest number of people who come here to do so under tier 2. The document states:"““Applicants will need to have a job offer from an employer who is registered with the Home Office on a list of approved sponsors””." How will that system of approving sponsors work? One could envisage many small organisations and companies, such as the restaurants that have already been mentioned, wanting to bring in a skilled employee. I hope that the system will be neither bureaucratic nor without an appeal mechanism for someone who is refused inclusion on the list of approved sponsors.
