I am advised by my officials in the Irish Prison Service that they are aware of the application referred to.

I am informed by the Prison Service that the Chief State Solicitor's Office has confirmed that its consideration of the legal issues involved is being expedited.

The Deputy will appreciate that I am not in a position to address the individual case or give a date for completion of consideration of the matter at this time.
