Written answers

Two recommendations were made under section 21(3) of the International Protection Act 2015 between January and the end May 2021.

These applications for international protection were deemed inadmissible under section 21(2)(a) of the International Protection Act 2015, as another EU Member State had already granted refugee status or subsidiary protection status to the person. This precludes them from making an application for international protection in the State.
