Abstract
Only in recent years has Ireland had to deal with appreciable
numbers of asylum seekers coming to her shores.
The reception of asylum seekers awaiting determination
of refugee claims has drastically altered in that period.
From inclusion to exclusion has been the hallmark of the
legal regulation of reception conditions for asylum seekers.
Legal protection from the Irish courts in ensuring a degree
of socio-economic protection to asylum seekers is unlikely
to be forthcoming. Traditional arguments on asylees’
rights as being “different” from Irish citizens and those of
other residents have been utilized to justify exclusion from
the welfare state. Ensuring the reception of asylum seekers
within traditional welfare state structures, where their
rights and needs are considered in a similar manner to
those of citizens, is the underlying argument of this paper
