I informed the Deputy in response to Parliamentary Question No. 349 on 29 November 2005 that the person concerned had applied for a certificate of naturalisation in November 2002 and that I had decided in July 2004 to refuse that application. The reasons for my decision were provided to the legal representative of the person concerned in a letter dated 28 July 2004 informing them of my decision.

New applications received up to 31 May 2006 have been examined and recorded on my Department's computer database. There is no record of a further application for naturalisation having been received from the person in question on or before that date.
