Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 11 December 2014
128. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Justice and Equality if she will review the case of a person (details supplied) in County Waterford on the basis that some of the conclusions reached in the context of rejection of their refugee status are speculative and unfounded; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [47642/14]
View answerI am advised by the Irish Naturalisation Service (INIS) of my Department that following a comprehensive and thorough examination of his asylum claim, Subsidiary Protection application 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.
Further representations were received from the person's legal representative pursuant to Section 3 (11) of the Immigration Act and following consideration of the information submitted, the Deportation Order was affirmed.
The effect of the Deportation Order is that the person concerned must leave the State and remain thereafter outside the State. The enforcement of the Deportation Order is an operational matter for the Garda National Immigration Bureau.
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.
