I am advised by the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service (INIS) of my Department that the issuing of work permits is a matter for the Department of Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation.

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 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 Parliamentary Question 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.
