According to the latest figure provided to DCEDIY by the Department of Justice, 114 persons with deportation orders (DOs) are currently residing in International Protection Accommodation Service (IPAS) centres.

This is a significantly small cohort that to release further detailed information with respect to these individuals could create a risk of indirect identification and infringe upon their right to privacy.

DCEDIY releases generic information with respect to the International Protection (IP) applicants. This cannot be used to locate or identify specific persons. Data and statistics are available at gov.ie.
