Written answers

Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform (Mr. McDowell)

The person in question made an application for permission to remain in the State on the basis of being part of a family unit where the parents of that unit have been granted residency. The application was received in October 2004. Applications of this type are dealt with in chronological order and those received in July 2004 are currently being processed.
