Home affairs department secretary Stephanie Foster says directions punishable by a year in prison are a ‘measure of last resort’ for non-compliant bridging visa E holders.Home affairs department secretary Stephanie Foster says directions punishable by a year in prison are a ‘measure of last resort’ for non-compliant bridging visa E holders.
The home affairs department secretary Stephanie Foster added that directions punishable by a year in prison are a “measure of last resort”. “Even if the intention is only a small part , once passed it can apply to a large number of people,” she said. Kaneshan said her family is appealing in the federal circuit court but if their case fails their visas will expire in 35 days.
Paterson told reporters in Canberra that multicultural groups are being “silenced” and government legal experts will not appear due to the fact the inquiry had been limited to one day. He blamed this on the fact the legal affairs legislation committee is “government-dominated”. Foster told the inquiry that the department “acknowledges” the concerns of those who gave evidence particularly in relation to family unity, but she warned that “most” had roles in advocacy.
