REASONS FOR JUDGMENT 1 This is an application for an order of review of a decision of the Refugee Review Tribunal ("RRT") affirming the decision of a delegate of the respondent Minister for Immigration and Multicultural Affairs not to grant protection visas to Khattar Emel Khatter ("the applicant husband") and Nadia Mikhail Shaker Hanna ("the applicant wife"). 2 The applicants are husband and wife and citizens of Egypt. The applicant husband arrived in Australia on 16 September 1996. On 5 November 1996 he lodged an application for a protection (class AZ) visa with the Department of Immigration and Multicultural Affairs under the Migration Act 1958 ("the Act"). The applicant wife arrived in Australia in January 1997. On 21 January 1998 the applicant wife lodged a protection visa application, including the applicant husband as a member of the family unit. She completed part D of the application which is for a member of the family unit "who does not have their own claims to be a refugee". On 22 January 1998 a delegate of the Minister for Immigration and Multicultural Affairs refused to grant protection visas, and on 25 February 1998 the applicants applied for review of that decision by the RRT. The adverse decision of the RRT was made on 24 May 2000 and was communicated to the applicants on 7 June 2000.
