CPI15 v Minister for Immigration and Border Protection [2019] FCA 1422

CPI15 v Minister for Immigration and Border Protection [2019] FCA 1422

The appeal was dismissed because the appellant did not establish jurisdictional error. The Tribunal considered his claims in detail under the relevant protection and complementary protection provisions, was entitled to reject aspects of his claims on credibility grounds and country information, and put to him the relevant inconsistencies and omissions from his entry interview, including the absence of the TMVP claim, giving him an opportunity to respond. There was no substance to the alleged non-compliance with ss 424A or 424AA.
