What Remigration Ireland is — and what it isn’t

What we do

Remigration Ireland publishes data-led analysis of Irish immigration policy: enforcement figures, asylum system costs, contractor accountability, EU migration law, and the gap between what the government says and what the official record shows.

Everything on this site is sourced. Every statistic is attributed to a named primary source — the Comptroller and Auditor General, the Department of Justice, the Oireachtas record, open court proceedings, or named credible reporting. When we are uncertain, we say so. When a named party disputes something on this site, we carry their response.

Editorial standards

Source before publish. No claim is published without at least two independent credible sources, or one primary source (published government data, court record, statutory report). Figures that cannot be sourced are not published.

Name what is named. We use the names of individuals and companies that appear in published court records, official government data, and credible named reporting. We do not publish allegations that have not already been put on the record by a court, official body, or named journalist.

Corrections within 48 hours. Documented errors are corrected promptly and the correction is noted in the article. Named individuals who dispute a factual claim can submit a right-of-reply; verified corrections are made and responses are carried beneath the relevant passage.

No fabrication. Quotes attributed to individuals are drawn from published interview transcripts, court records, or the Oireachtas record. We do not reconstruct dialogue or attribute views not on the public record.

Living documents. Investigations like Follow the Money are explicitly versioned and updated as new information becomes available. The version number and update date appear at the top of the page.

What we are not

We are not a political party, a campaign organisation, or affiliated with any political movement. We do not endorse candidates or parties. We do not accept advertising or commercial sponsorship. We have no government funding.

We are not a news wire. We do not cover breaking news in real time. We publish analysis when the underlying data has been verified — this means we are sometimes slower than daily news but more precise about what the numbers actually say.

We are not opposed to immigration as such. We are opposed to a system where enforcement rates are 3%, audit standards are non-existent, and hundreds of millions of euro flow to operators whose beneficial ownership is not verified. Those are questions about governance, not about whether Ireland should accept refugees.

Independence

Remigration Ireland is independently operated. It carries no advertising, no party affiliation, and no government or corporate funding. The site is run by a small editorial team and supported by readers who subscribe to the weekly briefing.

We apply the same scrutiny to politicians on all sides. The political conflict-of-interest section of the Follow the Money investigation names a Sinn Féin TD receiving State payments alongside a Fianna Fáil donor relationship — because the standard applies to everyone.

Right of reply

If you are named on any page of this site and want to respond — correction, denial, additional context, or formal statement — write to contact@remigration.ie. Responses received from named parties are carried on the relevant page, in full and unedited where length permits. Documented corrections are made within 48 hours of verification.

Nothing on this site is a finding of dishonesty or criminality against any person not already convicted in open court. Allegations put to a person in cross-examination are reported as allegations, not findings. Ownership chains are described as they appear in credible reporting and on the Companies Registration Office record.

AI and automated content

Some research and drafting on this site uses AI-assisted tools, including large language models, for initial structuring and summarisation. All published content is reviewed, fact-checked, and edited by a human editor before publication. No figure or claim is published on AI output alone — every statistic is verified against a named primary source. For our full AI disclosure, see about-ai.
