Question:206 Mr. J. O'Keeffe asked the Minister for Foreign Affairs if his attention has been drawn to the fact that the American Embassy in Dublin operates a system where some applicants for visa have to make double payments of the visa application fee of £38 and that no facilities for refunds are available even where such applicants produced their copies of the original receipt for payment; and if he will raise the issue with the American Embassy.
