     IN THE MATTER OF THE CITIZENSHIP ACT,

     R.S.C., 1985, c. C-29

     AND IN THE MATTER OF an appeal from the

     decision of a Citizenship Judge

     AND IN THE MATTER OF

     CHUNG SHUN PAUL HO

     Appellant

     REASONS FOR ORDER

LUTFY, J.:

     The appellant seeks reconsideration of my Judgment of January 9, 1997 dismissing his appeal.

     There is nothing in the Court material to indicate that the documents referred to in exhibit "C" to the affidavit in support of this motion for reconsideration were filed during the hearing of the appeal. The appellant's counsel had informed me of the decision of the second Citizenship Judge but it is only on this motion that his short written reasons were disclosed. I doubt that the written decision would have been admissible evidence on the appeal. In any event, it discloses no substantive information that was not mentioned orally by the appellant's counsel during his representations.

     Similarly, no document has been shown to me from the complete certified record of the Citizenship Judge which discloses information that would have altered my Reasons for Judgment.

     Accordingly, the motion for reconsideration is dismissed.
