Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 7 December 2016
90. Deputy Michael Healy-Rae asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Justice and Equality the status of an application for a tourist visa in respect of a person (details supplied); and if she will make a statement on the matter. [39141/16]
Amharc ar fhreagraI am advised by the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service (INIS) of my Department that the visa application has been approved. The applicant has been advised that her passport and visa may be collected from the Honorary Consulate's office in Manilla.
The Deputy may wish to note that queries in relation to the status of individual immigration cases may be made directly to INIS by e-mail using the Oireachtas Mail facility which has been specifically established for this purpose. This service enables up to date information on such cases to be obtained without the need to seek information by way of the Parliamentary Questions process. The Deputy may consider using the e-mail service except in cases where the response from the INIS is, in the Deputy’s view, inadequate or too long awaited.
