I appreciate the witnesses were asked to give a ten-minute presentation so a lot of points had to be summarised but it would be helpful to develop this issue of the speed at which change is happening. It would be helpful for the committee if the witnesses were to follow up with a detailed submission on the legislative change that is required on the blockages they are encountering in the system. That would be very helpful for us, as legislators, to try to make some practical changes.

Towards the end of Mr. Donohoe's presentation, he brought attention to this issue of greater collaboration between the Department and the Garda National Immigration Bureau, GNIB, and the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service, INIS. Has he made representation to the Departments on this issue and what has been their response?
