I propose to take Questions Nos. 404 to 406, inclusive, together.
The Garda National Immigration Bureau (GNIB) has responsibility for the first time registration and renewal of Irish immigration residence permissions for persons residing outside of the Dublin area. My Department's Registration Office in Burgh Quay is responsible for registering immigration permissions for customers residing in the Dublin area only.
The responsibility of the registration function at Immigration Offices outside of the Dublin rests with local Superintendents or the relevant Detective Superintendent. The deployment of Gardaí in this regard is an operational matter for the Garda authorities.
I am advised by an Garda Síochána that the requested information is not readily available and would require a disproportionate amount of Garda time and resources to compile.
It should note that applications for renewal of residence permission, including when changing stamp category, are accepted up to 12 weeks prior to expiry to allow sufficient time for processing.
