VPKY v Minister for Home Affairs [2019] FCA 1767

VPKY v Minister for Home Affairs [2019] FCA 1767

The Tribunal did not fail to consider the claimed family impact, distress, impediments on removal, or the risk factors concerning reoffending; those matters were either expressly addressed or implicit in the Tribunal's accepted findings. The Tribunal's weighing of protection of the Australian community, expectations of the community, family impact and impediments if removed disclosed a clear, intelligible justification and was not unreasonable.
