PQ 129
129. Deputy Shane Moynihan asked the Minister for Justice, Home Affairs and Migration if he will clarify the current policy regarding the treatment of time spent in the State under Temporary Protection (EU Directive 2001/55/EC) for the purposes of calculating reckonable residence for applications for Irish citizenship by naturalisation; if he will consider allowing, either in full or in part, such periods of residence to be counted towards the residency requirement, particularly in light of the significant number of Ukrainian nationals who have integrated into Irish society, are in employment, and intend to remain in the State long term; if he will outline whether any policy review is currently underway in this regard; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
