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

An application from the person referred to in the Deputy's question was received in the Citizenship Section of my Department on 1 June 2004. I am advised by my officials that processing of the application of the person concerned has commenced. When this is completed, I will advise both the Deputy and the applicant of my decision.
