The individuals in question entered the State in 2005 and claimed asylum under false identities. They have come forward to admit this and have provided evidence as to their real identities. This evidence has been examined by the Irish National Immigration Service which has recently advised that they are satisfied as to the identities now declared. New Personal Public Service Numbers will be allocated to the individuals in due course.
