An application for a certificate of naturalisation from the person referred to in the Deputy's Question was received in the Citizenship Division of my Department in September, 2006 and I decided to refuse the application. The reason for refusal was disclosed to the person concerned in a letter issued on 2 February, 2009.
It is open to the person in question to lodge a new application if and when they are in a position to meet the statutory requirements applicable at that time. However, in doing so he should bear in mind the reason for refusal of his previous application.
