1903119 (Refugee)

The applicant sought a review of a delegate's decision concerning a protection visa. The Administrative Appeals Tribunal (AAT) considered whether it had jurisdiction to hear the application, which was described as a "repeat review application."

The central legal issue before the AAT was whether the delegate's decision remained a "reviewable decision" for the purposes of the Tribunal's jurisdiction, given that it had already been the subject of a prior, valid review.

The AAT reasoned that once a delegate's decision has undergone a valid review by the Tribunal, it ceases to be a reviewable decision. Consequently, the Tribunal loses jurisdiction in relation to that specific decision. The Tribunal concluded that it did not have jurisdiction in this matter.
