Applications for naturalisation from the persons referred to by the Deputy were received in the citizenship section of my Department in December 2002. The average processing time for an application for naturalisation is currently 24 months. Consequently, it is anticipated that the applications should be finalised in the next few months. I will inform the Deputy and the applicants concerned as soon as I have reached decisions in these cases.
