Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 26 September 2019
106. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Justice and Equality if provisions will be made to facilitate the regularisation of residency status in the case of a person (details supplied); and if he will make a statement on the matter. [39226/19]
View answerI must inform the Deputy that the person referred to cannot be identified with any immigration related application or process from the information provided. I will be happy to follow up further on the matter if the Deputy can provide additional information on the nature of the immigration issue.
However, I must advise the Deputy that matters pertaining to the work permit system and the options available for obtaining a valid work permit is a matter for my colleague the Minister for Business, Enterprise and Innovation.
Queries in relation to the status of individual immigration cases may be made directly to the Immigration Service of my Department 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 is, in the Deputy’s view, inadequate or too long awaited.
