I informed the Deputy in response to Parliamentary Question No. 227 on 24 November 2005 and also to Question No. 298 on 15 December 2005 that an application for a certificate of naturalisation from the person referred to by the Deputy had been received in July 2005.

Officials in the citizenship section of the Department of Justice, Equality and Law Reform wrote to the person in question on 21 October 2005 seeking further documents in connection with the application. No reply was received and a reminder issued on 4 March last. To date no reply has been received to either letter. It is not possible to continue with processing the application of the person concerned until the requested documents have been submitted.
