D'Urso (Migration)

The Administrative Appeals Tribunal considered an application by Mr. D'Urso concerning a Subclass 408 (Temporary Activity) visa. The dispute arose from the assessment of Mr. D'Urso's criminal history in relation to his visa application.

The primary legal issue before the Tribunal was whether Mr. D'Urso met the criteria for the Subclass 408 visa, specifically in light of his criminal history and the provision of an Australian Federal Police National Police Certificate. The Tribunal was required to determine if the applicant satisfied Public Interest Criterion 4001 and clause 408.216(1) of Schedule 2 to the Regulations.

The Tribunal determined that a hearing was not necessary, as it could resolve the matter based on the existing material pursuant to section 360(2)(a) of the Migration Act 1958 (Cth). The Tribunal found that the applicant met the relevant criteria and accordingly remitted the application for reconsideration with a direction that the applicant satisfies the specified criteria.
