An application for naturalisation from the person concerned was received in the Citizenship Division of my Department on 25 January 2005.

The average processing time for such applications is approximately 24 months and as there are some 600 applications ahead of that of the applicant it is likely that the file in this case will be submitted to me for decision in the first half of this year.

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