The question of residency status does not arise at this time in the case of the person whose details were supplied. If the person has made an application for asylum or subsidiary protection the Deputy will be aware that it is not the practice to comment on such applications for so long as they remain in the protection process.

I propose to take Questions Nos. 95 to 97, inclusive, together.

I am advised by the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service (INIS) of my Department that the first named person was granted permission to remain in the State as the Spouse of an EU National who was exercising their EU Treaty Rights in this State. This permission to remain was valid until 24th January 2012. This permission was not renewed as the person concerned failed to submit satisfactory evidence of the EU citizen, exercising his EU Treaty Rights in the State for a continuous period of five years. The person concerned was notified of this decision by letter dated 9th July 2012. The matter is now being considered by the Removals Section of INIS under Regulation 20 of the European Communities (Free Movement of Persons Regulations) 2006 and 2008.

With regard to the second named person, the person concerned is a EU national. The person concerned is entitled to remain in the State, whilst he is exercising his EU Treaty Rights.

With regard to the third named person, I am advised that the person concerned is not documented on INIS records.

Queries in relation to the status of individual immigration cases may be made directly to the INIS of my Department 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.

I am advised by the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service (INIS) of my Department that insufficient information was provided by the Deputy to enable them to identify the person referred to. The reference number provided by the Deputy relates to a different person. If the Deputy wishes to furnish further details, the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service will advise him of the position.

I should remind the Deputy that queries in relation to the status of individual Immigration cases may be made directly to INIS by Email using the Oireachtas Mail facility which has been specially established for this purpose. The service enables up-to-date information on such cases to be obtained without the need to seek this information through the more administratively expensive Parliamentary questions process.

I am informed by the Irish Naturalisation Immigration Service (INIS) of my Department that the parents of the person concerned were granted permission to remain in the State in 2001 under the arrangements then in place for the non-EEA national parents of Irish born citizen children. The person concerned was granted permission to remain in the State for one year, on a stamp 4 basis from 23 January, 2014.

I should remind the Deputy that queries in relation to the status of individual Immigration cases may be made directly to INIS by Email using the Oireachtas Mail facility which has been specially established for this purpose. The service enables up-to-date information on such cases to be obtained without the need to seek this information through the more administratively expensive Parliamentary questions process.
