Thomas P. Broughan
Question:407. Deputy Thomas P. Broughan asked the Minister for Justice and Equality his policy with regard to Latvian persons living for many years here and who are anxious to acquire Irish residency status or even Irish citizenship and who currently have the Alien Latvian passports apparently given to non-Latvian speakers; if in such cases he will consider granting residency on compassionate grounds in view of the extraordinary nature of those Latvian passports in a member state of the European Union; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
