Question 600: To ask the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform when a decision will be made on the application by a person (details supplied) in County Kerry for naturalisation; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [10051/06]

An application for a certificate of naturalisation from the person referred to by the Deputy was received in the citizenship section of my Department on 30 June 2004.

The average processing time for such applications is 24 months at the present time. It is likely, therefore, that the application of the person concerned will be finalised in or around June of this year.

I will advise the Deputy and the person concerned as soon as I have made a decision on the matter.
