Applications for certificates of naturalisation from the persons referred to in the Deputy's question was received in the Citizenship section of my Department on 11 July 2006.
Applications received in the second half of 2004 are currently being processed and there are approximately 9,500 applications awaiting processing before those of the persons in question. It is likely that the processing of the applications of the persons in question will commence in the second half of 2008. I will inform the Deputy and the persons concerned when I have reached a decision on the applications.
