Amharc ar fhreagraAn application for a certificate of naturalisation from the person referred to in the Deputy's Question was received in the Citizenship Division of my Department in March 2006. Officials in that Section inform me that the application is at an advanced stage of processing and the file will be forwarded to me for a decision in due course. I understand that the person concerned is married to an Irish national and every effort is made to ensure those applications are dealt with as quickly as possible.
