Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 14 June 2022
723. Deputy Pearse Doherty asked the Minister for Foreign Affairs the reason that a witness form and photograph were deemed unsuitable for a passport application for a child (details supplied) in County Donegal; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [30006/22]
View answerWith regard to the specific application about which the Deputy has enquired, while the witness may be a Commissioner for Oaths, this was not the profession they recorded when completing the Child Identity and Witness form. The form was rejected as the profession that was recorded was not on the approved list of professions for witnesses.
The Passport Service has provided an update to the applicant's parent on the status of the passport application.
