I am advised by my officials in the Irish Prison Service that this application is under active consideration. While the Irish Prison Service is cognisant of the fact that this prisoner has a relatively short period of time left to serve in the transferring state, there remain necessary steps to be followed, and information to be obtained, before the application can be processed further.
