An application for permission to remain in the State on the basis of his parentage of an Irish-born child under the revised arrangements announced by me on 15 January 2005 was received in the IBC Unit on 27 January 2005. The person concerned was granted permission to remain in the State for two years on 22 April 2005. I understand that the person concerned has only recently received notification of this decision by post.
