Question:

195 Mr. McGuinness asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform the status of an application to remain in the State by a person (details supplied) in County Kilkenny; the timeframe for a decision in their case; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [39342/06]

Written answers

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

The person in question made an application for family reunification under Section 18 of the Refugee Act 1996 on behalf of his wife in February 2006. I expect that a decision will be reached in this matter in the early part of 2007.
