296. Deputy Claire Kerrane asked the Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade if she will issue instructions to the passport office, when it comes to renewal passport applications for under 18s, to end the practice of the widow/bereaved partner/other parent having to re-submit death certificates and sworn affidavits during every passport renewal, and instead to have a one-off verification system in order that documents associated with a bereavement do not have to be re-submitted continually unless family circumstances change; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
