400. Deputy Clare Daly asked the Minister for Justice and Equality why she has maintained the restrictions on consideration of applications for Irish visas by Libyan nationals; her plans to review these restrictions; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [35966/15]
View answerDue to the political and security situation in Libya, certain restrictions on consideration of Irish visa applications from Libyan nationals have been in place since August, 2014. I reviewed the situation earlier this year and decided that this arrangement generally should be maintained. The position is kept under review by the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service of my Department.
