1715576 (Refugee)

The applicant sought review of a delegate's decision concerning a protection visa application. The delegate's decision had previously been reviewed by the Refugee Tribunal.

The primary legal issue before the Tribunal was whether it possessed jurisdiction to conduct a second review of the delegate's decision, given that it had already been the subject of a prior, valid review.

The Tribunal reasoned that once a decision has been validly reviewed by the Tribunal, it ceases to be a "reviewable decision" for the purposes of further review. Consequently, the Tribunal determined that it lacked jurisdiction to entertain a second review of the same delegate's decision.

The Tribunal made no orders other than to state that it did not have jurisdiction in the matter.
