View answerI propose to take Questions Nos. 1005 and 1160 together.
I am informed by the Immigration Division of my Department that the application by the person concerned for a residence card on the basis of being a family member of an EU citizen exercising their EU Treaty Rights in the State was approved and that the decision was conveyed by registered post to the person concerned on the 26th January, 2009.
I should remind the Deputy that queries in relation to the status of individual Immigration cases may be made direct to INIS by e-mail using the Oireachtas Mail facility which has been specifically established for this purpose. The service enables up-to-date information on such cases to be obtained without the need to seek this information through the more administratively expensive Parliamentary Questions process.

View answerI am informed by the Irish Naturalisation and Immigration Service (INIS) that the person referred to by the Deputy has no application pending for residency. The person concerned is the subject of a Deportation Order, signed on 6 December 2005, following a comprehensive and thorough examination of her asylum claim, and a detailed examination of the representations she submitted for consideration under Section 3 of the Immigration Act 1999 (as amended).
I can confirm that an undertaking was given that the deportation will not be effected, pending the determination of an asylum application on behalf of the child of the person concerned.
