I propose to take Questions Nos. 85, 86 and 87 together.

The Passport Service does not collate issuance data based on place of residence, but rather on the dispatch address of the applicant.

In the time allowable, it has not been possible to extract the data related to specific country or application type. The Passport Service will provide this additional information to the Deputy once it is available.

The table below shows the number of passports issued by region in each of the years 2021 to 2025, and to date in 2026.
