An application for a certificate of naturalisation from the first person mentioned in the Deputy's Question was received in the Citizenship Section of my Department on 13 September 2006 and an application from the second person mentioned was received on 7 September 2006.
Officials in that Section are currently processing applications received in May 2006. All applications are dealt with in chronological order as this is deemed to be the fairest to all applicants. The current processing time for applications is approximately 29 months.
