I propose to take Questions Nos. 162 and 163 together.

The refugee in question made an application for family reunification in December 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 in October 2005. Further clarification is being sought in connection with this case. On receipt of a response, a decision will be made in this case.
