The person mentioned by the Deputy is in direct contact with officers of the Consular Division of the Department of Foreign Affairs. Through the Irish Embassy in Spain and the Honorary Consulate in Malaga (Fuengirola), he is being given all possible consular assistance, particularly in the matter of obtaining further copies of the death certificate of his father, who died in Malaga on 6 June 2006.

Five further copies of the death certificate have been requested from the Spanish authorities and will be forwarded to the person concerned as soon as the Embassy receives them. The Embassy has stressed the urgency of this request to the Spanish authorities.
