The applicants in question applied for permission to remain in the State on the basis of having an Irish-born child prior to 1 January 2005, in accordance with the revised arrangements announced by me on 15 January 2005, on 1 March 2005. Some 18,000 applications were received by the closing date of 31 March 2005 of which almost 17,000 have now been processed to conclusion. The applications of the persons in question are currently being processed and my Department officials will be in contact with them shortly with a decision.
