Seanad debates

Immigration Bill 2002 [Seanad Bill amended by the Dáil] : Report and Final Stages.

 

Senator Henry raised the question of interpretation. The position is that interpretation will always be provided, where practicable and possible, having regard to the fact that for certain languages there is a limited number of interpreters available within the State. However, where no interpretation is available immediately in the State, UK interpreters have been used or, in rare cases, applicants have had to wait until interpreters have become available.
