1832640 (Refugee)

The applicant sought review of a decision concerning a protection visa application made in relation to India. The delegate's decision had previously been reviewed by the Tribunal.

The central legal issue before the Tribunal was whether it possessed jurisdiction to review the delegate's decision, given that it had already undergone a prior review by the Tribunal.

The Tribunal reasoned that once a delegate's decision has been the subject of a valid review by the Tribunal, that decision ceases to be a reviewable decision. Consequently, the Tribunal's jurisdiction in relation to that specific decision is extinguished. The Tribunal therefore concluded that it did not have jurisdiction in the matter.
