If you are undocumented or know of someone who is, perhaps someone who you have worked with or who has been in your home, encourage them to apply for our scheme to regularise their position. They have until the end of July. Let Mel and the MRCI tell you what it means

[Helen McEntee TD @HMcEntee]

I am appalled by the Russian invasion of Ukraine. We stand with the Ukrainian people and we will play our part in assisting them in their time of need.

That’s why I am immediately lifting visa requirements between Ukraine and Ireland. This will apply to all Ukrainians.

[Oonagh Buckley @DSGJustice]

An important decision, for members of the Traveller community, and potentially wider.

[Oonagh Buckley @DSGJustice]

Meet Abed,13, who went from homelessness in 🇬🇷 to finding a new home in 🇮🇪.

“When they told me, I’d be moving to Ireland. I thought they were lying, it was wonderful.”

Relocation from 🇬🇷 to other European countries is an effective act of solidarity.

This shows how important it is to offer sanctuary to people. I have no doubt that Ireland will benefit forever from being generous to refugees from Afghanistan in 2021 @DeptJusticeIRL @dcediy and well done to the judiciary, @LawSocIreland and @TheBarofIreland for their support.

[RTÉ News @rtenews]

Since the Taliban took control of Afghanistan, Ireland has offered sanctuary to 510 Afghan citizens on humanitarian grounds. So far, 394 people have arrived, while an estimated 78 remain in Afghanistan or are in another country, still trying to get here. | https://t.co/Sgb9Nzu4Gi
