I would refer the Deputy to the replies I made to Questions Nos. 290, 293, 295 and 298 on Wednesday 15 June 2005 and to the statement made by the Minister for Community, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs, Deputy Ó Cuív, to the Seanad during the Adjournment debate there on 15 June 2005 about these cases. The position remains the same. I do not intend reversing the decisions to deport these persons and return them to Ireland.
