Written answers

I am pleased that the referenced consular matter was resolved and that the citizen returned to Ireland. The Embassies of Ireland in Bulgaria and Romania were actively engaged on the issues that unfortunately arose and provided consular assistance to the citizen. The Embassy of Ireland in Bulgaria is following up on matters arising more generally with the relevant authorities.
