Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 13 June 2013
152. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Justice and Equality when update of Stamp 4 will issue in the case of a person (details supplied) in Dublin 3; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [28585/13]
Amharc ar fhreagraThe person concerned was granted temporary permission to remain in the State under stamp 4 conditions on 1 December, 2005 for an initial two year period, under the revised arrangements applicable to the non-EEA national parents of the Irish born children born in the State before 1 January, 2005, more commonly known as the IBC/05 Scheme. The permission was subsequently renewed with the latest renewal period expiring in April, 2013.
I understand that a request from the person concerned for a renewal of permission to remain, with some supporting documentation, has been received by my officials in the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service (INIS). However, further documentation is required and officials in the INIS will be writing to the person concerned in the coming days to request same. On receipt of this documentation, the case of the person concerned will be further examined.
Queries in relation to the status of individual Immigration cases may be made directly to the INIS by e-mail using the Oireachtas Mail facility which has been specifically established for this purpose. This service enables up-to-date information on such cases to be obtained without the need to seek this information by way of the Parliamentary Questions process. The Deputy may consider using the e-mail service except in cases where the response from the INIS is, in the Deputy's view, inadequate or too long awaited.
