I propose to take Questions Nos. 116 and 248 together.

These questions refer to a specific case where the High Court granted leave to the applicants to seek judicial review in respect of certain deportation related matters. The High Court has not yet heard the substantive arguments in the case nor has it made a judgment. An appeal to the Supreme Court does not, therefore, arise.

An undertaking not to deport was provided to the court in the light of the particular circumstances of the case. The approach to be taken in any judicial review proceedings depends on the circumstances of the case in consultation with the State's legal advisers. The circumstances in this case may not be directly replicated in others.
