Written answers

The person referred to by the Deputy made an application to the Afghan Admission Programme, which was received by my Department on 25 February 2022. My Department has received 528 applications to the Programme in total, and my officials are currently processing all applications with decisions due to issue in the coming months.

Queries in relation to the status of individual immigration cases may be made directly to my Department by e-mail using the Oireachtas Mail facility (inisoireachtasmail@justice.ie), 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
