PQ 194
194. Deputy Ryan O'Meara asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade to consider implementing changes to the online passport tracker to better reflect processing times in the instance of a ‘non-standard’ or ‘complex’ application, as these applications currently present with an estimated issue date based on ‘standard’ application processing times and said estimated issue date does not update once it has passed, therefore leaving said applicants with no indication on turnaround times, as is afforded to applicants with ‘standard’ applications; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
