The Pennsylvania Department of Labor and Industry have granted child-labor permits for Kate Gosselin's twins and sextuplets to appear with their mother on a series of TLC specials, "Kate Plus 8."

The permits are good for six months and then must be renewed, according to AP news.

Producers should have obtained permits for "Jon & Kate Plus 8," which ended last year when the couple divorced. No legal action was taken.
