I refer the Deputy to my response to Parliamentary Question No. 116 of 31 January, 2017. I am also advised by the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service (INIS) that they will get in touch with the person concerned.

The Deputy may wish to note that queries 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 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.

In addition, members of the public may themselves e-mail queries directly to INIS (visamail@justice.ie).
