Written Answers 15 May 2015 Written Answers. The following are questions tabled by Members for written response and the ministerial replies as received on the day from the Departments [unrevised]. Questions Nos. 1 to 15, inclusive, answered orally. Questions Nos. 16 to 23, inclusive, resubmitted. Questions Nos. 24 to 34, inclusive, answered orally. 15/05/2018WRA00600Passport Applications Administration 15/05/2018WRA0070035. Deputy Robert Troy asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade the actions he has taken to address delays with regard to the issuing of passports. [21118/18] 15/05/2018WRA00800Tánaiste and Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade (Deputy Simon Coveney): The turnaround timeframe for a passport application will depend, in the first instance, on the chan- nel through which the application was submitted. The Passport Service provides a range of channels to Irish citizens wishing to apply for a passport. These include a postal application system, online passport application service, in person counter application facilities in Dublin and Cork and the network of Irish Missions worldwide. The target turnaround time for applications made via the online passport application service is 10 working days plus postage. The majority of online applications are currently being pro- cessed within 5 working days, well ahead of target. The online service currently accommodates adult renewals and passport card applications and it is planned to further extend this service to other categories of renewals by the end of 2018. The highest proportion of applications are submitted through the An Post Passport Express postal channel. The average turnaround time for renewal applications submitted through Pass- port Express is currently on target at 15 working days. Other types of application, which are generally submitted through Passport Express, such as first time applications or applications to replace lost, stolen or damaged passports take longer. Such applications must undergo additional processes including security checks. Measures taken by the Passport Service to minimise the impact of peak time application volumes on turnaround times for all categories of applications include the recruitment of ad- ditional staff and the use of targeted overtime for all Passport Offices. The Passport Service received sanction this year for 220 Temporary Clerical Officers (TCOs) for appointment to the Passport Offices in Dublin and Cork. All TCOs in this intake have been fully trained and placed since March. These TCOs are working together with perma- nent staff to process passport applications and to deal with the high number of enquiries being 1 Questions - Written Answers made through the Passport Service’s various customer service channels. The number of Full Time Equivalent staff permanently employed by my Department and assigned to the Passport Service stood at 322 at the beginning of the year. This compares to 310 Full Time Equivalent staff assigned to the Passport Service at the same point last year. In addition, over 20 additional permanent staff have been assigned to the Passport Service in 2018. Targeted overtime was also sanctioned for both temporary and permanent staff in the Dublin and Cork offices to help deal with high application volumes. My Department has an extensive communication strategy to promote good practice amongst passport holders when planning to travel abroad. We regularly advise applicants of 3 golden rules: - to check the validity of the passports in advance of booking travel; - to apply at least 6 weeks in advance of their travel plans; and - for eligible adults renewing their passport to consider the Online Passport Renewal Service passport application online facility, which is a fast, secure way for adults renewing their passport. 15/05/2018WRA00900Middle East Issues 15/05/2018WRA0100036. Deputy Gino Kenny asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade if he will condemn the unilateral decision by the USA to declare Jerusalem as the capital of Israel and its further humiliation of the people of Palestine by moving its embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem on the 70th anniversary of the Nakba; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [21121/18] 15/05/2018WRA01100Tánaiste and Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade (Deputy Simon Coveney): I have addressed the tragic events in Gaza in an earlier reply. In my statement of 6 December I set out the Government’s view of the US decision to move its Embassy to Jerusalem. This was that the announcement was premature and ill-advised, and would be unhelpful to efforts to reach a resolution of the Middle East Peace Process, something which is very urgently needed. I conveyed to the US Government ahead of its announcement my concern about reports of US intentions, and I know that very many leaders around the world did the same. The announcement, when it was made, was thus very disappointing and difficult to understand. My view that this move is a significant mistake and predictably divisive remains unchanged, following the formal transfer of the US Embassy to Jerusalem yesterday. This involved essen- tially the move of the Ambassador’s official location to the existing US Consulate building in Jerusalem. The actual transfer of the bulk of Embassy functions will await the construction of a new Embassy premises, which may be a lengthy process. Thus far only three Central and South American countries have announced that they will follow the US move. Ireland looks forward in due course to establishing Embassies in Jerusalem to both Israel and the future Palestinian state, following the conclusion of a peace agreement and in accor- dance with international law. Until then, our Embassy to Israel will remain in Tel Aviv. Question No. 37 answered with Question No. 29. 15/05/2018WRA01300Syrian Conflict 2 15 May 2015 15/05/2018WRA0140038. Deputy Clare Daly asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade if he will condemn the unlawful bombing of Syria by the Israeli authorities and Israel’s stated inten- tion to escalate its aggression against Iran within Syrian borders; and if he will make a state- ment on the matter. [21127/18] 15/05/2018WRA01500Tánaiste and Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade (Deputy Simon Coveney): I have addressed the tragic events in Gaza in an earlier reply.

Deputy Niall Collins asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade the recent efforts made to address the issue of the undocumented in the United States of America; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [21124/18] 15/05/2018WRA01800Tánaiste and Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade (Deputy Simon Coveney): The Government has consistently pursued two key objectives with regard to supporting Irish com- munities in the United States: increased pathways for legal migration by Irish citizens to the US and relief for the plight of undocumented Irish citizens living in the US. In that regard, the Taoiseach discussed the issue with President Trump in the Oval Office on March 15 last and also in his meetings on Capitol Hill during this year’s St. Patrick’s Day visit. In addition to the exchanges over the St. Patrick’s Day period, I had previously raised the is- sue with then-Secretary of State Tillerson when I visited Washington DC in February, and with senior Congressional figures. The Government’s Special Envoy to the United States Congress on the Undocumented, Deputy John Deasy, has also been very active on the issue. In addition, our Embassy in Washington DC is engaged with the Administration and with contacts on Capitol Hill on an ongoing basis. The Embassy, as well as our six Consulates across the United States, work very closely with Irish immigration centers who support the needs of Irish citizens in the United States. In this regard, our Ambassador in Washington will hold a further regular meeting with representatives of the Coalition of Irish Immigration Centers at the 3 Questions - Written Answers Embassy in Washington, DC, next week. Through these many high-level contacts and discussions, the Government has been explor- ing a number of different options, including the possibility of a reciprocal agreement covering the undocumented Irish in the US, on the one hand, and US citizens looking to move to Ireland, on the other. However, this remains a very challenging issue and I do not want to raise expectations un- duly.

The first major objective of the project was to measure the intertidal biomass of Ascophyllum nodosum at selected sites along the Irish west coast. A total of 258 survey sites of varying size were selected by the survey team. They were considered to encapsulate all of the important regions where Ascophyllum nodosum harvesting was currently practiced and/or could take place in the future. Sites were selected using existing harvesting records, detailed map and chart studies and on-site visits. The total coastal area surveyed has the potential to yield 74,845 tonnes (t) of Ascophyllum nodosum sustainably per annum. The total amount harvested in 1996 was 35,850 t or some 48% of the total annual potential.
