The person concerned applied for asylum on 31 May 2005 and had her claim investigated in turn by the Office of the Refugee Applications Commissioner and the Refugee Appeals Tribunal. Both of these bodies concluded that she and her family did not meet the criteria for recognition as a refugees. Their recommendations were communicated to the person concerned on 12 December 2005 and 28 April 2006 respectively. My Department's Ministerial Decisions Unit will be writing to the person concerned in the coming days outlining her current position in the State and the options open to her.
