I have not contacted the Department of Justice, Equality and Law Reform in relation to the issue raised by the Deputy. My colleague Mr Brian Lenihan T.D., Minister for Justice Equality and Law Reform has responsibility for administering Government policy in relation to immigration and visa issues and any concerns in that regard should be referred to that Department.
