Question 167: To ask the Minister for Foreign Affairs if his attention has been drawn to the fact that the Israeli State is threatening to deport a person (details supplied); and if he will request that no such deportation take place before this person's appeal is heard. [4465/05]

The person to whom the Deputy refers was arrested on 24 January 2005 in the West Bank and was served with a deportation notice. The embassy in Tel Aviv provided consular assistance to him following his arrest and also discussed his case with his lawyer and contacted the Israeli authorities. It now appears that the person has decided to withdraw the appeal against the deportation order and has voluntarily agreed to leave the country.
