International Protection Bill 2025
Safetynet is calling for urgent improvements to health protections in the International Protection Bill 2025. Drawing on front-line experience screening over 1,374 asylum seekers last year, we've identified critical gaps that put lives at risk—from people with diabetes losing access to insulin after deportation orders, to vulnerable individuals facing short-notice transfers that disrupt life-saving treatments. Our briefing to the Oireachtas Justice Committee sets out evidence-based amendments to ensure the Bill protects both individual dignity and public health.

Read our briefing presented to the Committee on Justice, Home Affairs and Migration on the 21st of October by CEO, Nicola Perry and Medical Director Dr Angela Skuce.
