Organisations promoting the rights of migrants say uncertainty over the resumption of immigration services is causing considerable distress​, despite the announcement by the Minister for Justice and Equality, Helen McEntee, of a further temporary extension of immigration permissions.

Chief executive of the Immigrant Council of Ireland, Brian Killoran, said they all had "extremely concerned" clients with visa renewal dates due in the coming weeks.
