Other Questions: Passport Services (18 Jun 2019)

Aindrias Moynihan: Aontaím go láidir leis an Uasal Ó hAiniféin mar gheall ar scoileanna a mhealladh isteach. Is é an chúis a d'fhiafraigh mé an raibh an Roinn chun iachall a chur orthu ná chun eolas a fháil. Ní theastaíonn uaim go mbeidh daoine sa chóras nach theastaíonn uathu a bheith ann.
