REASONS FOR JUDGMENT
INTRODUCTION 1 The appellant is a citizen of India. He arrived in Australia on 11 May 2007 on a subclass 420 (entertainment) visa. On 14 May 2007 he lodged an application for a protection visa with the Department of Immigration and Multicultural and Indigenous Affairs (as the Department then was). That application was refused by a delegate of the first respondent on 29 June 2007. On 27 July 2007 the appellant applied to the Refugee Review Tribunal (the Tribunal) for a review of that decision. On 6 June 2008, the Tribunal affirmed the decision of the delegate of the first respondent to refuse to grant a protection visa to the appellant. 2 This appeal is from a judgment of a Federal Magistrate delivered on 21 November 2008 (WZANE v Minister for Immigration and Anor [2008] FMCA 1520). His Honour dismissed an application for judicial review of the decision of the Tribunal lodged on 25 July 2008.
