I am informed by the Immigration Division of my Department that a visa for the applicant cannot issue until such time as the deportation order is revoked. This matter is currently under review and I understand that a recommendation will be made to me in the near future as to whether the deportation order is or is not to be revoked. I will inform the Deputy of my decision in due course.
