To ask the Minister for Justice and Equality further to Parliamentary Question No. 191 of November 2012 wherein it is suggested that it would be logistically inconsistent to review the case of a person (details supplied) who it is alleged failed a fair and comprehensive asylum process when it is clear that such a process should have detected a serious threat to the well-being and life in the event of their return to their homeland; if he will re-examine these issues in the interest of due process and natural justice; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

As mentioned in replies to previous Parliamentary Questions asked by the Deputy, the above named person has been evading his deportation since 3 November 2009 and should he come to the notice of the Garda authorities, he would be liable to arrest and detention. He should, therefore, present himself to the Garda National Immigration Bureau without any further delay.

I am satisfied that the application made by the person concerned for asylum and for temporary leave to remain in the State was fairly and comprehensively examined and, therefore, the decision to make a Deportation Order against him is justified.

The effect of the Deportation Order is that the person concerned must leave the State and remain thereafter outside the State. The enforcement of the Deportation Order is an operational matter for the Garda National Immigration Bureau.

Queries in relation to the status of individual immigration cases may be made directly to the 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 the INIS is, in the Deputy’s view, inadequate or too long awaited.
