The person in question was originally granted permission to remain in the State on 2 May 2000 based on his parentage of an Irish born child. This permission has been renewed for the person concerned until 17 March 2008. The permission to remain in the State granted to the person mentioned is conditional on him continuing to reside in a family unit with the Irish citizen child in question. In the event that the person in question's circumstances change in the future, he should notify the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service of my Department immediately as it may affect his residency in the State.

I refer the deputy to my previous replies in relation to the person in question and in particular my response to his Question of 9 March 2006. Despite a number of requests for specific information and supporting documentation relating to the person in question's circumstances, I regret to say that the position remains unchanged as the information requested has not been forthcoming to date. However, it has been decided to give the person in question one final opportunity to provide the specific information required and a decision on the case will be made shortly thereafter.
