I would refer the Deputy to the Reply I gave to his Dáil Question No. 253 of Thursday 5 July 2007. The status of the person concerned remains as set out in that Reply.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Deputy may wish to note that any person the subject of a deportation order may apply to have his/her deportation order revoked pursuant to Section 3 (11) of the Immigration Act, 1999, as amended. However, any such application would require substantial grounds to be successful.
