Written answers

I am advised by the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service (INIS) of my Department that while the person concerned has claimed to be the parent of an Irish born minor citizen child, and has sought to assert a right of residency in the State on that basis, the person concerned has not submitted any of the information or documentation required from such persons. As a result, a representative of the INIS wrote to the person concerned on 24th March, 2014 requesting the submission of the required information and documentation. There is no record of the requested information and documentation having been submitted to date. The position in the State of the person concerned can be further considered upon receipt of the requested information and documentation.

Queries in relation to the status of individual immigration cases may be made directly to the INIS of my Department 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.
