Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 28 March 2013
201. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Justice and Equality further to Parliamentary Question No. 283 of 14 February 2013, wherein an indication was given that a letter had issued to a person requesting payment of fee and other documentation which subsequently did not issue in the case of a person (details supplied) in Dublin 22; if the said correspondence might re-issue; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [15913/13]
View answerA copy of the letter has issued to the person concerned at the address provided by the Deputy. Officials inform me that numerous attempts have been made, without success, to contact the person concerned regarding his application. It is vital that an applicant keeps my Department informed of any changes to their contact details.
Queries in relation to the status of individual immigration cases may be made directly to INIS by e-mail using the Oireachtas Mail facility which has been specifically established for this purpose. This service enables up to date information on such cases to be obtained without the need to seek information by way of the Parliamentary Questions process. The Deputy may consider using the e-mail service except in cases where the response from INIS is, in the Deputy’s view, inadequate or too long awaited.
