A new process to strip citizenship from Irish citizens has been passed by the Oireachtas more than three years after the previous system was struck down by the Supreme Court.

The system will allow the State to revoke the citizenship of Islamic terrorist Ali Charaf Damache, something it has been trying to do since 2018. A convicted terrorist, Algerian-born Damache is in jail in the US where his Irish citizenship helped earn him a shorter sentence through a plea bargain.

About 40 other revocation cases are also pending for a range of other issues, for example where an applicant has been later found to have given false information.

In this episode from January 2024, Irish Times crime and security correspondent Conor Gallagher explains how Irish citizenship can be revoked, on what grounds it might happen and how the planned new system will change the process.

Presented by Bernice Harrison. Produced by John Casey.
