REASONS FOR JUDGMENT
On 19 August 2009 I published reasons for my orders quashing the decision of the Refugee Review Tribunal signed 15 September 2008. I ordered that any submissions on behalf of the Applicant as to costs be filed and served on or before 28 August 2009, and that any submissions on behalf of the First Respondent as to costs be filed and served on or before 4 September 2009.
Neither party filed submissions.
In my reasons for judgment at paragraph [93] – [99] I dealt with the issue of costs. I foreshadowed a provisional view that the Applicant should recover his costs fixed in the sum of $3,000.00. I invited the parties to make submissions if they contended for any other costs order. As I have said neither party has filed any submissions. I will therefore formalise the order as to costs.
I certify that the preceding three (3) paragraphs are a true copy of the reasons for judgment of Wilson FM
