EUD24 v Minister for Immigration and Citizenship [2025] FCAFC 128 (10 September 2025) (Cheeseman, Owens and Hill JJ)


Catchwords:


MIGRATION – primary judge dismissed an application for judicial review of the respondent Minister’s decision under s 501BA of the Migration Act 1958 (Cth) to set aside a decision of the then Administrative Appeals Tribunal and cancel the Appellant’s visa – whether the primary judge erred in failing to find that the Minister’s decision was legally unreasonable, or illogical or irrational – whether Minister’s findings on success of rehabilitative efforts lacked a probative basis – whether Minister’s findings on appellant’s access to welfare services in Iran lacked a probative basis – whether the primary judge erred in failing to conclude that the Minister committed jurisdictional error by reasoning as if the power in s 501BA(2) was, and was only, a power to cancel a visa – appeal dismissed
