I refer the Deputy to my previous reply to his earlier Parliamentary Question No. 166 of Thursday, 2nd April, 2009. The judicial review proceedings referred to therein were finalised on the 25th January, 2010.

The deportation order remains valid and I am satisfied that the decision to deport is justified. However, if new information or circumstances have come to light, which have a direct bearing on this case and which have arisen since the original decision to deport was made, there remains the option of applying to me for revocation of the deportation order pursuant to the provisions of Section 3 (11) of the Immigration Act, 1999, as amended. However I wish to make clear that such an application would require substantial grounds to be successful.

The effect of the Deportation order is that the person concerned must leave the State and remain thereafter out of the State.
