I have been informed by the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service (INIS) that they have received further information in respect of the circumstances of the person mentioned by the Deputy. The INIS are considering this information and have arranged to meet with the person concerned to discuss his case further as part of that consideration.

Queries in relation to the status of individual immigration cases may be made directly to INIS by e-mail using the Oireachtas Mail facility which has been specifically established for this purpose. This service enables up to date information on such cases to be obtained without the need to seek information by way of the Parliamentary Questions process. The Deputy may consider using the e-mail service except in cases where the response from INIS is, in the Deputy's view, inadequate or too long awaited.
