International Submissions

At the Irish Refugee Council, we are committed to promoting a fair and efficient asylum system that meets and goes beyond Ireland’s international human rights obligations towards people seeking international protection and those granted asylum. Below are our submission to international human rights bodies that highlight concerns and propose recommendations on how to protect and uphold the rights and dignity of all who seek international protection in Ireland.
