I refer the Deputy to my previous reply to Question 232 of the 5 May 2010 including the reasons for the refusal of the visa application in question. As also outlined in my reply, this application was refused on the 30 March 2010 and mention was made that it was open to the person concerned to appeal the decision of the Visa Officer within two months of the date of refusal, in this case before the 30 May 2010.
On 13 May 2010, an appeal letter which contains information in line with the details supplied by the Deputy was received from the person concerned by the Visa section of my Department, in Dublin. This letter has been forwarded for the attention of the Visa Appeals Officer at the Irish Embassy in Cairo. A decision regarding this matter will issue in due course.
