I am informed by the Immigration Division of my Department that the person concerned made an application for residence in the State based on his marriage to a French national on 17 June 2009. The legal representative for the person concerned was informed of the decision to refuse this application on 20 August 2009. The decision to refuse this application is currently under review.

I refer the Deputy to my detailed reply to his earlier Parliamentary Question, No. 392 of Tuesday, 9 June, 2009. As indicated in my earlier Reply, the position in the State of the person concerned falls to be considered in accordance with the provisions of Section 3 of the Immigration Act, 1999 (as amended). Work has commenced on this consideration and I expect a final decision to be made in the case of the person concerned within the next few weeks. When a decision has been made, this decision and the consequences of the decision will be conveyed in writing to the person concerned.
