I am informed that the case referred to by the Deputy relates to a re-application for asylum. As the Deputy will be aware, under the Refugee Act 1996, two independent statutory offices were established to consider applications-appeals for refugee status and to make recommendations to the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform on whether such status should be granted. These are the Office of the Refugee Applications Commissioner, which considers applications for a declaration as a refugee in the first instance, and the Refugee Appeals Tribunal, which considers applications for a declaration at appeal stage. A final decision will be made in this case upon receipt of the recommendation of the Refugee Applications Commissioner.
