		Ireland's day-to-day approach on the Security Council was guided during its two year term by the longstanding principles which have informed our UN policy since we joined in 1955.

	Irish Refugee Council
		Ireland is not immune to international trends and should be pro-active in addressing the relatively new phenomenon in Ireland.
		The Irish Refugee Council (IRC) welcomes the provision in the Irish Nationality and Citizenship (Amendment) Bill 2004 that children born to parents living in Ireland without restriction - which includes persons already recognised as refugees - will continue to be entitled to Irish citizenship. However, the IRC is concerned that children born before their parents' refugee status has been recognised may not enjoy the same entitlement.
		Ireland has long had a distinctive approach to the issue of citizenship in that it offers citizenship both at birth to all children born in the State while, at the same time, making an Irish passport available to the grandchild of any Irish citizen, born anywhere in the world to parents of any combination of nationalities.
