Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 26 September 2013
198. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Justice and Equality if and when the necessary residency status will be awarded to a person (details supplied) in County Carlow; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [40343/13]
View answerI am informed by the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service (INIS) of my Department that the person referred to has no application for residency pending.
I refer the Deputy to a recent Parliamentary Question No. 36904/13 of the 18th July, 2013 which referred to the father of the person concerned.
Queries in relation to the status of individual immigration cases may be made directly to the 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 the INIS is, in the Deputy’s view, inadequate or too long awaited.
