I am informed by the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service (INIS) of my Department that correspondence was received from the person in question, to review the decision made in July 2016 to refuse them permission to work in the State without the requirement of a work permit. This review is currently under consideration and correspondence will issue to this person in the coming weeks.

Queries in relation to the status of individual immigration cases may be made directly to the INIS of my Department by email 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 email service except in cases where the response from the INIS is, in the Deputy’s view, inadequate or too long awaited.
