I have received notice from Senator Ulick Burke that, on the motion for the Adjournment of the House today, he proposes to raise the following matter:

The need for the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform to outline his proposals to rectify matters pertaining to persons who have resided in this State for more than five years, who have fulfilled the statutory and administrative requirements for citizenship, who submitted their applications in 2002 and still, after two years, have not had their citizenship applications finalised.

I regard the matter raised by the Senator as suitable for discussion on the Adjournment and it will be taken at the conclusion of business.
