The person concerned claimed asylum in the State on16/09/2004 and had herclaim examined by the Office of the Refugee Applications Commissioner and the Refugee Appeals Tribunal, following which it was recommended that she should be recognised as a refugee. Based on this recommendation, the person concerned was advised of my decision to issue her with a formal declaration of refugee status by letter dated 27/10/2005. This communication also advised the person concerned of the rights and entitlements accompanying refugee status in the State. The person concerned continues to hold the status of refugee in the State. As you are aware, a proposal to revoke refugee status has been issued. As this case is currently under examination, it would be inappropriate for me to comment pending the outcome of that examination.
