The person referred by the Deputy to is the subject of a Deportation Order, which they can make an application under section 3(11) of the Immigration Act 1999 (as amended), to have their Deportation Order revoked.

To be successful, any request would need to be founded on new information or changed circumstances which were not put forward or were not capable of being put forward when the decision to make a Deportation Order was taken. The outcome of the request will be that the existing Deportation Order will either be ‘affirmed’ or ‘revoked’.

The person can also contact the Repatriation Division of my Department directly at:

arrangements@justice.ie

Queries in relation to the status of individual immigration cases may be made directly to my Department by e-mail using the Oireachtas Mail facility (inisoireachtasmail@justice.ie) 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 is, in the Deputy's view, inadequate or too long awaited.
