I refer the Deputy to my previous reply to PQ No. 125 for answer 15 May 2019. In exceptional cases, passports can be temporarily returned to refugees upon request, if the person can demonstrate a well-founded need for such return. Each application is considered on its merits. A person seeking the return of a passport should write to the Ministerial Decisions Unit, INIS, 13-14 Burgh Quay, Dublin 2 or email mduinfo@justice.ie, whereupon officials of the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service (INIS) of my Department will make contact with her or him.
