The second amendment to section 9 is the first element of substance in the package. It replaces the existing subsection (4A) of section 9, requiring the applicant to keep the commissioner informed of a current address. The innovation is at paragraph (b) of the new subsection, which deals with the situation where an application for refugee status is made but no address is given and the applicant is never heard from again. By that new provision, an applicant who does not have an address in Ireland when applying has five working days – in effect, a week – within which to give an address to the commissioner.
