An application for a certificate of naturalisation from the person referred to in the Deputy's Question was received in November 2006. On examination of the application it was determined that the person concerned did not meet the residency requirements as set out in the Irish Nationality and Citizenship Act 1956, as amended. A letter informing her of this was issued on 26 March 2007. It is open to the person in question to lodge a new application if and when she is in a position to meet the statutory requirements applicable at that time.
