742. To ask the Minister for Justice and Equality how many deportation orders, as distinct from removal orders made against EU citizens, were made against persons of Latvian and Estonian origin, who were categorised as "non-citizens" and holders of non-citizen passports or alien's passport, respectively, in each year since their states' accession to the EU in 2004.

Deportation Orders are made under the provisions of Section 3(6) of the Immigration Act, 1999, as amended, and under Section 5 of the Refugee Act, 1996 on the prohibition of refoulement. I am advised by the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service of my Department that there is no record of any Deportation Order being made against persons of Latvian and Estonian origin, who were categorised as "non-citizens" and holders of non-citizen passports or alien's passport, respectively, in any of the years since their States' accession to the EU in 2004.
