An application for a Certificate of Naturalisation from the person concerned was received in the Citizenship Section of my Department on 18 March 2005 and my predecessor decided to refuse the application. The reason for the refusal was disclosed to the applicant in letters dated 17 January 2007 and 9 June 2008.
It is open to the person in question to lodge a new application if and when he is in a position to satisfy the statutory requirements applicable at that time. However, in doing so he should bear in mind the reasons for refusal of his previous application.
