Question 140: To ask the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform the position regarding assessment for eligibility for residency or naturalisation and subsistence payment in the case of a person (details supplied) in County Laois; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [7508/10]

I refer the Deputy to my detailed Reply to his earlier Parliamentary Question No. 140 of Thursday, 8 October 2009, in this matter. The position in the State of the person concerned is as set out in that Reply. It is not clear as to what the Deputy means in his references to "assessment for eligibility for residency" or "subsistence payment" in the context of his Question. Given that the person concerned has never had legal residency in the State, the issue of naturalisation does not arise.
