An application for a certificate of naturalisation from the person referred to in the Deputy's Question was received in the Citizenship Section of my Department in September 2007. On examination of the application it was determined that the person concerned did not satisfy the residency requirements.

It is open to the individual in question to lodge a new application if and when she is in the position to meet the statutory residency requirement applicable at that time.
