An application for naturalisation from the individual in question was received in the Citizenship Division of my Department on 6 December, 2004.

Applications received in the second half of 2004 are currently being processed and there are approximately 500 applications awaiting processing before that of the person in question. I would expect the file to be presented to me for decision by mid 2007.

I will inform the Deputy and the applicant once I have reached a decision on the application.
