The person concerned was granted permission to remain in the State on 5 September, 2005 for an initial two year period, under the revised arrangements applicable for the non-EEA national parents of Irish born children born in the State before 1 January, 2005, more commonly known as the IBC/05 Scheme. This permission was renewed at three year intervals and is currently valid until 22 July, 2016. I am informed that no application for a certificate of naturalisation has been received from the person concerned in the Citizenship Division of my Department to date.

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. This service enables up to date information on such cases to be obtained without the need to seek information by way of the Parliamentary Questions process. The Deputy may consider using the e-mail service except in cases where the response from INIS is, in the Deputy's view, inadequate or too long awaited.
