Question 377: To ask the Minister for Foreign Affairs if he will support the case of a person (details supplied). [4408/09]

As noted in my response to the Deputy's previous question about a visa for this individual (PQ 1008/09) I am not in a position to support individual visa applications.
It is the Department of Justice, Equality and Law Reform rather than my own Department which has primary responsibility for visa and immigration policy and, in particular, for making decisions on individual visa applications where there is a previous history of an asylum application or deportation as would appear to be the case in this instance.
