MIGRATION – whether the Minister ‘noting’ and commenting on a Departmental submission about the manner in which an Informed Referral to Status Resolution (IRSR) process would be undertaken by officers of the Department in relation to the appellant constituted a ‘personal procedural decision’ of the Minister – whether the possibility of detention being prolonged is a sufficient interest to engage a duty to afford procedural fairness in conducting the IRSR process – where Minister accepted that, if a duty were owed, the appellant was not afforded procedural fairness
