I propose to take Questions Nos. 582 and 599 together.
I would refer the Deputy to the replies I gave to Parliamentary Questions Nos. 325 of Tuesday, 9 May, 2006; 193 of Thursday, 18 May, 2006; and 200 of Thursday, 29 June, 2006.
The person in question consented, in writing, to the making of deportation orders in respect of her and her children. A decision in this case will issue in the near future.
The person referred to by the Deputy is a citizen of Brazil and is not visa required to enter this State. As a non-visa required national seeking to work in Ireland, the applicant is advised to refer to the Department of Enterprise, Trade and Employment's website (www.entemp.ie) for details of the Work Authorisation and Work Permit Schemes, under which the applicant may be eligible for consideration.
