My Department officials held a series of engagements with their counterparts from the Department of Justice on foot of the ruling in the CJEU case referred to in the Deputies question. These discussions specifically relate to S.I. 548 of 2015 – European Communities (Free Movement of Persons) Regulations 2015. The Department of Justice is in the process of reviewing its legislation to ensure that the findings of the said CJEU ruling are accurately reflected in a series of proposed amendments to S.I. 548 of 2015. My Department officials will continue to engage with the Department of Justice with a view to bringing the matter to a timely conclusion.

I trust that this clarifies matters for the Deputy.
