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 15 September 2005.
The average processing time for such applications is around 24 months at the present time. It is likely, therefore, that the case of the person referred to will be finalised in or around September 2007. I will inform the Deputy and the applicant when a decision has been taken in the matter.
