Questions (709)

Colm Burke

Question:

709. Deputy Colm Burke asked the Minister for Justice if a person (details supplied) will be permitted to apply for citizenship in February 2024 rather than May 2024, as they arrived into Ireland in February 2021 where they were given the join spouse stamp at Dublin Airport and were told to register at Burgh Quay, which remained closed until May 2021 due to the pandemic, and given that if they had lived outside of Dublin, it would have been possible for them to register at their local Garda station immediately, rather than being delayed for three months; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
