The person in question made a Family Reunification application on behalf of his wife in May 2007 and on behalf of his daughter in July 2007.

The application was forwarded to the Refugee Applications Commissioner for investigation as required under Section 18 of the Refugee Act 1996. This investigation is completed and the Commissioner has forwarded a report to my Department.

This application will now be considered by my Department and a decision will issue in due course.
