Question 298: To ask the Minister for Justice and Equality if it is a requirement when a person is released from prison that they receive a final certificate of release from the prison service. [10693/11]

I am advised by the Irish Prison Service that there is no formal certificate of imprisonment and consequently no requirement to issue such a document. However, a Prison Governor can provide a prisoner with a written record of his or her imprisonment if requested.
