The definitive guide to Irish immigration and citizenship law
The new edition of Immigration and Citizenship Law provides the practitioner, student and policymaker alike with a comprehensive and definitive analysis of Irish immigration law, EU free movement of persons law in Ireland, and Irish citizenship law. It provides extensive commentary on all these interconnected areas of law, including on all legislative and policy developments and on the most recent case law from Ireland, the Court of Justice of the European Union, and the European Court of Human Rights.
The text is fully updated to reflect all legislative developments since the first edition, including amendments to the Immigration Act 2004 and the Irish Nationality and Citizenship Act 1956, and secondary law including regulations giving effect to the EU Reception Conditions Directive and the Dublin Regulation.
The new edition also provides full context for key policy developments, including 2022's Undocumented Migrants Scheme, and changes to visa and residence administrative schemes and arrangements. A new section analyses and explains developments impacting migrants resident in the state for employment reasons.
