The refugee in question made an application for family reunification in November 2004. The application was forwarded to the Refugee Applications Commissioner for investigation as required under section 18 of the Refugee Act 1996.

The commissioner submitted a report on the investigation to my Department on 26 September 2005. Further documentation in support of the application has been requested from the refugee concerned. On receipt of this documentation a decision will be taken on the case.
