SZVLY v Minister for Immigration and Border Protection [2016] FCA 940

SZVLY v Minister for Immigration and Border Protection [2016] FCA 940

The appellant identified no information that the Tribunal was required to put to him under s 424A, and none was apparent from the Tribunal record. The matters relied upon concerned the absence or assessment of evidence and did not attract s 424A. The unsupported assertion that the Tribunal lacked jurisdiction because its reasonable satisfaction was not arrived at according to the Act disclosed no error. Accordingly, no jurisdictional error by the Tribunal or appealable error by the primary judge was established.
