I refer the Deputy to the replies I gave to Question Nos. 726 and 781 answered on Wednesday, 26 January 2005, Question No. 129 answered on Thursday, 14 April 2005 and Question No. 143 answered on Thursday, 19 May 2005.
The person concerned presented herself as required at the Garda National Immigration Bureau but her deportation was postponed as she was advanced in pregnancy at the time. She subsequently made an application to have her deportation order revoked based on her cohabiting relationship with a man granted refugee status in the State and their parentage of a child born in Ireland on 10 June 2005. This application is being considered by my officials and I expect the file to be passed to me for decision shortly.
