What we are hearing is incredible. On the fines imposed, according to the figures published, nine of ten passengers refused permission to land at Dublin for not having the required documentation were subsequently allowed to stay. Figures published in the last fortnight in the newspapers stated that 6,765 of 7,662 who presented were allowed to stay. A figure of 98%, however, was mentioned. This would seem to suggest that nine out of ten subsequently applied for asylum status. Did Ms McPhillips say it was 98%?
