2006527 (Refugee)

The applicant sought review of a delegate's decision regarding a protection visa application. 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 a decision that had already undergone a valid review by the Tribunal.

The Tribunal reasoned that once a decision has been the subject of a valid review, it ceases to be a reviewable decision. Consequently, the Tribunal determined that it lacked jurisdiction to entertain a second review of the same decision. The Tribunal therefore concluded that it did not have jurisdiction in this matter.
