PQ 251
251. Deputy Éamon Ó Cuív asked the Minister for Foreign Affairs the reason that a person (details supplied) who has been granted Irish citizenship and is also a Polish citizen who has applied for a passport has been told that they must submit their Polish passport with documentation required to finalise their application and that this will be retained for up to six weeks, despite the fact that they have explained that they are employed as an international driver carrying loads from Ireland to France each week via the European Union and that their work is vital to a small Irish food producer; the reason that when they submit the required documentation including their Polish passport a photocopy will not be made of their Polish passport and be returned to them immediately; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
