Poland's government on Wednesday announced it have given a green light to plans for a limited amnesty for illegal immigrants living in the country.
In a statement, the government said it had approved a draft law covering individuals who have lived in Poland illegally since December 2007.
An estimated 5,500 people are expected to benefit from the amnesty law, which must still win the backing of parliament.
Under the planned legislation, they would be granted a two-year residence and work permit.Poland, a European Union nation of 38 million, is traditionally a source of emigrants rather than a destination.
