Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 1 February 2022
437. Deputy Catherine Murphy asked the Minister for Foreign Affairs the steps he has taken to repatriate a person (details supplied); if he and or his officials will engage with officials in the Algerian embassy regarding facilitating a pathway for a person to return to Ireland; and if he will develop a solution in order for the person to make an application for an Irish passport.

View answerI can confirm that my Department is aware of the case raised by the Deputy.
Ireland's Embassy in Berne, which is also accredited to Algeria, is engaging with the named person. My Department's Consular Assistance Unit also stands ready to provide support to the person's family in Ireland and can be contacted directly on (01) 4082527.
As with all consular cases, I cannot comment on the specific details of the case.
