Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael)

There seems to be a difficulty with some representatives who are sent here and maintained by their churches in other countries. If they come to preach or teach to whatever congregation they have in this country, when their remit is over after 12 months they must return to their countries for 12 months before they are allowed back in, despite the fact that they may be fully maintained and funded by their churches in their home countries. Has that matter been brought to the Taoiseach's attention? A number of these missionaries have contacted my office about that problem.
