This ministerial submission relates to a Statement to Parliament concerning the exercise of discretionary powers under section 198AE(1) of the Migration Act 1958, with a determination made on 16 May 2024. The document is heavily redacted, with substantive content withheld under exemptions relating to legal professional privilege (s.33(a)), cabinet confidentiality (s.37(2)(b)), and national security considerations (s.47E(d) and s.47F(1)). The submission structure indicates it contained recommendations, key issues, background information, internal and external consultation details, and risk assessments with implications for legal, financial, media and systems matters. The actual grounds for the ministerial exercise of discretion and specific policy details remain shielded from release.
