S266/2003 v Minister for Immigration and Multicultural and Indigenous Affairs [2006] FCA 651

The Tribunal did not commit jurisdictional error. Its references to the lack of detail in the applicant's written evidence and examples of deficiencies in his claims were not information required to be given for comment under s 424A. The applicant also provided no particulars or evidence identifying Part B or country information allegedly not considered, so he did not establish an arguable case under Muin or otherwise for the relief claimed.
