An application for permission to remain in the State based on marriage to an Irish national was received from the person concerned in April 2005. Applications are dealt with in chronological order and officials in my Department have recently corresponded with the person in question in order to further process the application for residency. The case is currently under active consideration. A decision will be made when all the circumstances relevant to this case have been fully considered.
