As referred to by the Deputy, I understand that this matter relates to an Irish national serving a sentence in England and who was released recently with a requirement that he wear an electronic monitoring device until the end of March, 2017.

I can only advise that if the person referred to wishes to return to Ireland they should contact their probation office in England to inform them of what his intentions are and that office will, as appropriate, consider the matter and make any necessary contact with the relevant authorities here.
