Migration (Iraq - United Nations Security Council Resolution No. 661) Regulations
Section 181 of the Migration Act 1958 (the Act) provides that the Governor-General may make regulations for the purposes of the Act. In addition sections 23 and 33 of the Act enable him to make regulations in relation to the granting and refusal of visas and entry permits.
These regulations remake the Migration (Iraq - United Nations Security Council Resolution No. 661) Regulations to remove the restriction on granting a visa or an entry permit to a person involved in the sale, supply or promotion of a commodity or product, when it relates solely to the sale or supply of foodstuffs.
This amendment is made in accordance with United Nations Security Council Resolution No. 687.
