At the outset, it is important to note that, as Minister, I do not comment on individual IIP applications.

6 individual REIT Investor applications were approved in the period from 2016-2020. Given the small number of applicants involved, my Department is not in a position to provide a further breakdown of these applications as the publication of such information may allow for the identification of individuals.

At the outset, it is important to note that, as Minister, I do not comment on individual Immigrant Investor Programme (IIP) applications.

The 'applicant' in the IIP process is the investor and not the project owner. The State has no responsibility for the performance of an investment under the Programme; these are a private matter between the investor and the project owner. It is a matter for the project owner to ensure delivery on an approved project within the timeframe set out in its own business plan.

My Department will however continue to engage with and monitor all projects going forward for delivery, specifically for compliance with the IIP requirements.

If the project owner has any queries they should contact the IIP Unit directly.
