Amharc ar fhreagraI propose to take Questions Nos. 101 and 102 together.
The persons in question arrived in the State on 16 April, 2003 and applied for asylum. Their application was refused following consideration of their case by the Office of the Refugee Applications Commissioner and, on appeal, by the Refugee Appeals Tribunal.
The persons in question were granted temporary leave to remain in the State on 30 November, 2004, and this was renewed on 1 December, 2005. On 17 October, 2006 an application was received from the persons in question to have their permission to remain in the State renewed. I expect a decision to issue from my Department in the near future.
103 Mr. Durkan asked the Tánaiste and Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform the progress in determining the residency status in the case of a person (details supplied) in County Dublin; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [42229/06]
Amharc ar fhreagraI refer the Deputy to Parliamentary Questions No. 245 of Thursday, 25 May, 2006 (ref: 20285/06), No. 151 of Thursday, 11 May, 2006 (ref: 17743/06) and No. 326 of Thursday, 6 April, 2006 (ref: 14070/06) and the written replies to those Questions. The position is unchanged.
