Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 11 June 2014
128. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Justice and Equality the extent to which a person (details supplied) in Dublin 7 can be facilitated to regularise, by way of work permit or otherwise, their residency status from stamp 1 to stamp 4 in view of their ethnic employment in the catering industry; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [24917/14]
View answerI am advised by the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service (INIS) of my Department that correspondence is due to issue to the person in question in the coming days in relation to the matter raised by the Deputy.
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 services 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.
