I informed the Deputy in response to Question No. 364 on 8 March 2005 that it was likely that the application of the person concerned would be finalised in or around June 2006. This is still the position.

I have been advised by officials in the Department of Justice, Equality and Law Reform's citizenship section that there is no record of an application for a certificate of naturalisation having been received from the individual concerned. It is not possible to determine if the person in question is eligible for Irish citizenship until a fully completed application form, accompanied by the necessary supporting documentation, has been received. I understand that an application form is being sent to the Deputy's office in this regard.
