__________________

GUMMOW J:   The applicants are married.  They are citizens of Cyprus.  A delegate of the first respondent refused their application for protection visas.  The Refugee Review Tribunal upheld that decision, rejecting the applicants' claims of political persecution by reason of credibility problems, country information and the fact that relocation was possible.

O'Dwyer FM dismissed an application for judicial review.  Tracey J dismissed an appeal.

The papers filed in support of the applicants' special leave application are virtually unintelligible.  They do not suggest that any relevant error has taken place.  The application must be dismissed.

Pursuant to r 41.10.5 we direct the Registrar to draw up, sign and seal an order dismissing the application for special leave.  I publish the disposition signed by Justice Heydon and myself.

AT 9.10 AM THE MATTER WAS CONCLUDED
