Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 16 June 2016
68. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Justice and Equality the procedure a person (details supplied) must follow under the residency scheme; under the Naturalisation Scheme; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [16627/16]
Amharc ar fhreagraI am informed by the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service (INIS) of my Department that the person concerned is currently the holder of immigration permission until 22 November, 2016. It is open to the person concerned to contact their local registration office for a further renewal period, two weeks in advance of this date. Queries in relation to the status of individual immigration cases may be made directly to the INIS of my Department 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 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.
