If the person whose details were supplied has made an application for asylum or subsidiary protection in the State, the Deputy is advised that it is not the practice to comment on such applications until they have fully completed the protection process. This is in accordance with Section 19(1) of the Refugee Act, 1996 (as amended) which provides for the protection of the identity of protection applicants.
The Deputy is further advised that protection applicants are issued with a temporary residence permission pending a final decision on their application.
