Australia: Refugee Review Tribunal

The Refugee Review Tribunal was a statutory body which provided a final, independent, merits review of decisions made by the Minister for Immigration and Citizenship or, in practice, by officers of the Department of Immigration and Citizenship (DIAC), acting as delegates of the Minister, to refuse to grant protection visas to non-citizens within Australia, or to cancel protection visas held by non-citizens in Australia. The Tribunal was established in 1993 under Part 7 of the Act and replaced the Refugee Status Review Committee (RSRC). On 1 July 2015 the Refugee Review Tribunal was amalgamated into the Administrative Appeals Tribunal.  Website: www.aat.gov.au/

Afghanistan: 1. Is it true that Afghan families registered with Pakistan's Commissionerate for Afghan Refugees were issued with "Afghan Citizen Cards", but that in 2007 there was an official announcement that these would not be renewed upon expiry in 2009, making these people unable to remain there legally? 2. Please provide any information regarding the recruitment of Afghan returnees from Pakistan by the Independent Electoral Commission in Afghanistan in 2009
