281 Mr. Boyle asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform the status of a citizenship application (details supplied). [5348/04]
View answerAn application for a certificate of naturalisation from the person referred to by the Deputy was received in the citizenship section of my Department on 16 September 2002. The average processing time of applications for naturalisation is currently approximately 15 to 18 months. I understand that the processing of the application of the individual concerned is almost finalised and that it should be referred to me for a decision in the near future. As soon as I have reached a decision on the matter, I will inform both the applicant and the Deputy of the outcome.
