143. Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Justice and Equality if she will review an appeal in the case of a person (details supplied) with a view to taking account of all the circumstances in an effort to ensure a fair resolution and accept this Parliamentary Question as a basis for appeal; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [40168/16]
Amharc ar fhreagraI am advised by the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service (INIS) of my Department that, if the person whose details were supplied has made an application for asylum or subsidiary protection in the State, the Deputy will be aware that it is not the practice to comment on such applications until they have fully completed the protection process. This is in accordance with Section 19(1) of the Refugee Act 1996, as amended which provides for the protection of the identity of protection applicants.
