Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 12 June 2014
185. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Justice and Equality the position regarding the determination of residency status-eligibility for naturalisation and including the setting aside of an order for deportation to facilitate evaluation of the full circumstances, in view of the detailed submission already made on their behalf in the case of a person (details supplied) in Dublin 11; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [25172/14]
View answerI am informed by the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service (INIS) of my Department that following a comprehensive and thorough examination of her asylum claim and an examination under Section 3 of the Immigration Act 1999 (as amended), a Deportation Order was made in respect of the person referred to by the Deputy on 11 May 2005, and therefore she has no entitlement to residence in the State.
I am informed that an undertaking has been given that the deportation order will not be effected, pending the outcome of investigations by the Garda National Immigration Bureau (GNIB).
Queries in relation to the status of individual immigration cases may be made directly to the INIS by Email 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.
