The person in question arrived in the State on 13 November, 1996 and applied for asylum. Her application was refused following consideration of her case by Asylum Division. The person in question was granted temporary leave to remain in the State on 10 June, 2002, and this was renewed in 2004 and 2005. Her current permission to remain in the State expired on 23 August, 2006. The person in question has submitted an application to have her permission to remain in the State renewed and I expect a decision to issue from my Department shortly.
