Controversial Irish hip-hop group Kneecap has still not received official notice from the Canadian government about whether they are barred from entering Canada, the band’s manager said Monday, 10 days after their apparent entry ban was announced.

“No notice on anything,” band manager Daniel Lambert told Global News in an email, “just Vince’s social media video.”

Lambert was referring to Liberal MP Vince Gasparro , the parliamentary secretary for combating crime, who posted a video to his social media on Sept. 19 saying the government has deemed Kneecap’s members ineligible to enter Canada.

“On behalf of the Government of Canada I am announcing that on the advice of our officials, we have deemed the group Kneecap ineligible to enter our country,” Gasparro said in the post.
