Written answers

Minister for Justice

As Minister, I do not comment on individual IIP applications. However, I can confirm that my Department has and will continue to engage with the representatives of the organisation concerned directly in this regard.

I can advise the Deputy that updated information in relation to the winding down of the Programme and the processing of applications has recently been published on my Department’s website and an updated FAQ is now available also.
