I am advised by the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service (INIS) of my Department that, in response to a notification pursuant to the provisions of Section 3 of the Immigration Act 1999 (as amended), the persons concerned have not submitted written representations.

The position in the State of the persons concerned will now be decided by reference to the provisions of Section 3 (6) of the Immigration Act 1999 (as amended) and all other applicable legislation. If any representations are submitted, they will be considered before a final decision is made.

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.

The person concerned arrived in the State in 2007, was registered as a student here up to 26 November 2014, and through Trayers & Company Solicitors, submitted an application for permission to remain in the State on 22 May 2015. By letter of 24 May 2016 permission was refused.

The person concerned instituted Judicial Review proceedings on 06 September 2016 challenging the refusal to grant permission to remain and accordingly, as the matter is sub judice, I do not propose to comment further.
