As you may be aware, the Irish Refugee Protection Programme (IRPP) was established in 2015. Since that time there have been 3,093 Syrian refugees granted leave to remain in the country. I can also confirm that 450 Afghan Refugees have been granted leave to remain under the refugee programme scheme.

In regard to family reunification, this is a programme under the remit of the Department of Justice. Therefore, I suggest that you contact my colleague, the Minister of Justice, for a response on this matter.
