Ceist:110 Mr. Byrne asked the Minister for Justice if he will give details of the criteria used to assess aliens for naturalisation.
Vol. 421 No. 8
110 Mr. Byrne asked the Minister for Justice if he will give details of the criteria used to assess aliens for naturalisation.
111 Mr. Byrne asked the Minister for Justice if he will outline the way in which a person (details supplied) in Dublin 6 can qualify for naturalisation.
I propose to answer Questions Nos. 110 and 111 together.
The position is that the statutory provisions governing the granting of a certificate of naturalisation are set out in the Irish Nationality and Citizenship Acts, 1956 and 1986 (No. 26 of 1956 and No. 23 of 1986).
