As the name of the person referred to by the Deputy does not match the reference number supplied, it is not possible to provide the information sought at this time. However, if the Deputy wishes to re-submit his Question with the correct name and reference number included, I will be happy to provide a substantive reply. However, I should remind the Deputy that queries in relation to the status of individual immigration cases may be made directly to INIS by Email 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.

I refer the Deputy to my detailed reply to his recent Parliamentary Question, No.365 of Wednesday, 27th October in this matter. In my reply, I informed the Deputy that I had written to the applicant clearly setting out the reasons for the refusal of his application. The reason for refusal relates to the requirement for an applicant for Long Term Residency to be of good character.
