Sinn Féin has proposed stricter citizenship rules that would require applicants to reside in Ireland for eight years instead of five. The policy, outlined by the party, aligns with the government’s plan to extend the residency period. The reform aims to reduce the number of people granted citizenship. The party’s proposal reflects a shift toward more stringent immigration policies. The change would affect future applications for citizenship status. The policy is part of a broader discussion on immigration reform in Ireland.
