Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 17 May 2011
365 Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Justice and Equality the current and or residency status in the case of persons (details supplied) in County Laois; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [11225/11]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe two persons concerned are the subject of Deportation Orders, signed on 2 December, 2005, following a comprehensive and thorough examination of their asylum claims, and a detailed examination of the representations they had submitted for consideration under Section 3 of the Immigration Act 1999 (as amended). The effect of the Deportation Orders are that the persons concerned must leave the State and remain thereafter out of the State. The enforcement of the Deportation Orders is an operational matter for the Garda National Immigration Bureau.
I should remind the Deputy that queries in relation to the status of individual immigration cases may be made directly to INIS by Email using the Oireachtas Mail facility which has been specifically established for this purpose. The service enables up-to-date information on such cases to be obtained without the need to seek this information through the more administratively expensive Parliamentary Questions process.
