Question:228 Deputy Michael Ring asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform when an application by a person (details supplied) in County Mayo will be approved. [18296/07]
View answerThe person concerned arrived in the State on 16 July, 2002 and was given permission to remain until 26 July, 2002. He married an Irish national on 24 July, 2003 and on 28 January, 2004, he made an application for permission to remain in the State based on his marriage to an Irish national. This application was considered and refused. Subsequently, in accordance with Section 3 of the Immigration Act, 1999, as amended, he was informed by letter dated 18 October, 2005, that the Minister proposed to make a deportation order in respect of him. He was given the options, to be exercised within 15 working days, of making representations to the Minister setting out the reasons why he should be allowed to remain temporarily in the State; leaving the State before an order is made or consenting to the making of a deportation order. Representations have been received on behalf of the person concerned.
This person's case file, including all representations submitted, will be considered under Section 3(6) of the Immigration Act, 1999, as amended, and Section 5 of the Refugee Act, 1996 (Prohibition of Refoulement). I expect the file to be passed to me for decision in due course.
