I propose to take Questions Nos. 983 and 1033 together.

The permission to remain in the State previously granted to the person concerned expired on 20 March 2010. An application to have this permission renewed has been received from the person concerned and this application is currently under consideration in my Department. Once a decision has been made on this renewal application, this will be conveyed in writing to the person concerned.

I should remind the Deputy that queries in relation to the status of individual immigration cases may be made directly to INIS by e-mail using the Oireachtas Mail facility which has been specifically established for this purpose. The service enables up-to-date information on such cases to be obtained without the need to seek this information through the more administratively expensive Parliamentary Questions process.
