Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 20 October 2011
166 Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Justice and Equality to indicate if and when residency will be granted in the case of a person (details supplied) in County Clare; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [30478/11]
View answerI have been informed by the Irish Naturalisation & Immigration Service that the person referred to by the Deputy had their permission to remain in the State renewed on an exceptional basis for 12 months on 2nd June, 2011. The Deputy should note that the address and reference number quoted differ to that contained in the notification that issued to the person concerned.
I should remind the Deputy that queries in relation to the status of individual Immigration cases may also be made direct to INIS by e-mail using the Oireachtas Mail facility which has been specifically established for this purpose. The service enables up-to-date information on such cases to be obtained without the need to seek this information through the more administratively expensive Parliamentary Questions process.
