Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 12 February 2009
137 Deputy Bernard J. Durkan asked the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform the position regarding the application for citizenship in respect of a person (details supplied) in Dublin 15; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [5515/09]
View answerAn application for a certificate of naturalisation from the first person referred to in the Deputy's Question was received in the Citizenship Division of my Department in April 2007.
Officials in that section inform me that the application is at an advanced stage of processing and the file will be forwarded to me for a decision in due course.
Officials inform me that there is no record of an application for a certificate of naturalisation from the second person referred to in the Deputy's Question. It is open to the person concerned to lodge an application for a certificate of naturalisation if and when they are in a position to meet the statutory requirements applicable at that time.
