Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 26 January 2012
184 Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Justice and Equality if and when the naturalisation process will be concluded in the case of a person (details supplied) in County Kildare; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [4703/12]
View answerThe person is currently residing in the State on a Stamp 5 which remains valid until his current passport expires on 2 June 2016. The endorsement permits the holder to reside in the State, to work without a work permit and to operate a business without the permission of the Minister once they register it with their local immigration office. Further information regarding the endorsement may be found at www.inis.gov.ie/immigration.
I should remind the Deputy that queries in relation to the status of individual immigration cases may be made directly to the INIS Email 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.
