It is a central priority for me that Ireland’s immigration system is robust and rules based. The enforcement aspects of our laws, including issuance of deportation orders, are an essential requirement for the system to work effectively and to ensure that there is confidence in the application of our legislation in this area.

Before a deportation order is made, a full assessment of each person’s individual circumstances is carried out to establish if they should be granted permission to remain in the State. Depending on whether the person’s case falls under the International Protection Act 2015 or the Immigration Act 1999 (as amended), this consideration may be carried out by the International Protection Office, and/or my Department's Repatriation Division.

If a person has made submissions in respect of their previous and current occupations, these submissions will be given due consideration as appropriate.

This information, if received, will be detailed on the person’s individual records but is not recorded in a manner which allows for the collation of statistic based on a person’s occupation or occupational prospects.
