I can inform the Deputy that the information sought is at present being compiled by the Irish Prison Service and the Garda National Immigration Bureau. The provision of the relevant data is complicated by the need to cross reference and check information emanating from their two separate databases. Following this exercise, the information will be matched against the database in the Repatriation Unit of my Department. I can assure the Deputy that this information will be conveyed to him at the earliest possible date.
