Vol. 415 No. 3

Written Answers. - Political Asylum Applications.

Roger T. Garland

Ceist:

125 Mr. Garland asked the Minister for Justice if he will give details for the last ten years of (1) the number of applications he has received for political asylum, (2) the countries which these applicants come from, (3) the number that were successful, (4) the number of these people that were deported, (5) where each of these applicants lived while their applications were been processed and (6) the number of such applications which are still pending.

The records in my Department in relation to asylum matters are not maintained in such a way as to enable the information sought to be extracted without the diversion of a disproportionate amount of scarce staff resources to the task, which would not be warranted.
