Not according to the law...but then again Ireland has it's own way of doing things. Hmm... my suspicion is that most people (staff or diners) wouldn't have any ID with them (in the situation described in the article) that would demonstrate their legal right to be in the country or to take employmen...

The UK and the RoI are not doing themselves a favor. By NOT joining Schengen, they show the rest of Europe that they think they are something better.
