An application for a certificate of naturalisation from the person referred to by the Deputy was received in the citizenship section of my Department on 15 March 2004. The average processing time for such an application is currently 24 months. On the basis of the current average processing time, it is likely therefore that the application of the individual concerned will be finalised in early 2006. I will inform both the applicant and the Deputy as soon as I have reached a decision on the application in question.
