Am I to understand that if a 16 year old arrives in a container into Rosslare Port, he or she cannot apply for asylum because he or she is unaccompanied by an adult, although a person under the age of 18 at a border of the State or in the State may make an application for international protection on his or her own behalf, subject to sections 21 and 22? Does the current legislation allow for someone who is 16 or under to make an application on his or her own behalf?
