As the Deputy will be aware, the Border Management Unit of my Department is responsible for frontline immigration duties at Dublin Airport only. All other ports of entry are the responsibility of the Garda National Immigration Bureau (GNIB).

I have sought the information requested from the Garda Commissioner and I will write to the Deputy directly once the information is to hand.

I have sought the information requested by the Deputy from the Garda authorities and, unfortunately, this was not available in time. I will write to the Deputy once the information is to hand.
