Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 14 June 2022
1305. Deputy Catherine Connolly asked the Minister for Justice her views on an inter-country prisoner transfer request by an Irish person (details supplied); the reason for the delays in the request being activated; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [29523/22]
Amharc ar fhreagraI am advised by my officials in the Irish Prison Service that this application is under active consideration. While the Irish Prison Service is cognisant of the fact that this prisoner has a relatively short period of time left to serve in the transferring state, there remain necessary steps to be followed, and information to be obtained, before the application can be processed further.
