A.M.S. v. Minister for Justice and Equality [2014] IEHC 57 (13 February 2014) concerns a Somali refugee in Ireland, who applied for family reunification with his mother, wife, daughter, two sisters and two brothers pursuant to section 18 of the Refugee Act 1996. His wife and daughter were granted reunification, but the Minister for Justice and Equality refused the application for the other relatives because of the likelihood that they would rely on social welfare.
