The dossier requesting the approval of facilities located around Rosslare Port as a border inspection post was sent to the European Commission by my Department on the 14th of February.

The Commission is now reviewing the submission with a view to assessing if it is acceptable with regards to regulations and legislation governing the approval of border inspection posts and have already been in contact with my officials seeking further clarification on the proposals.
