An application, made on behalf of the person in question for permission to operate a business in the State was received on 1 September 2004 and requests were issued for documentation to support the application. However, as no response was received the application was deemed to have been abandoned. If the person in question wishes to supply the documentation previously requested my Department will be prepared to consider the application.
