NADP v Minister for Immigration & Multicultural & Indigenous Affairs [2003] FCA 185

NADP v Minister for Immigration & Multicultural & Indigenous Affairs [2003] FCA 185

The Court dismissed the application because, after reading the Tribunal's reasons, Moore J found no apparent jurisdictional error. The only potentially substantive point in the applicant's submissions was based on Muin v Refugee Review Tribunal, but there was no evidence that all Part B documents were not before the Tribunal or that the applicant would have conducted himself differently had he known they were not.
