As previously stated in my reply to Parliamentary Question 367 of 18th May 2010, I have been informed by the Garda National Immigration Bureau that there is no requirement or obligation on Immigration Officers, nor is it common practice internationally, to ensure that the attention of non visa required nationals is drawn to the requirements that can be asked of them by Immigration officers at a point of entry. However, if a person has a specific enquiry regarding the immigration requirements of this State, it is open to them to visit the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service website; www.inis.gov.ie.
