Recent developments
Requirement to provide a statement of reasons for applications for review
On 4 May 2022, the Federal Court published its judgment in the matter of Miller v Minister for Immigration, Citizenship, Migrant Services and Multicultural Affairs [2022] FCA 489. The case concerned a review of decision made under s 501CA of the Migration Act 1958 in the Tribunal’s General Division. The form lodged by the applicant with the Tribunal did not include any reasons for the application and none were provided until after the time limit for applying for review had expired. The time to apply for review could not be extended for that type of decision. The Court held that the Tribunal had no jurisdiction to hear and determine the application.
Applicants and representatives are reminded to ensure that a statement of reasons is provided to the Tribunal within the time limit for applying for review for applications lodged in all divisions (except the Migration & Refugee Division).
Applications for a review of a character-related visa decision made under s 501 or 501CA of the Migration Act 1958, which are reviewed in the General Division, should be made using the following forms and applicants should ensure that the ‘Reasons for the application’ section is completed:
•	Online General Division application - Apply Online - AAT Online Services; or
•	Application for review of decision (individual)

Statements of Principles
This section of the Bulletin provides information on recent developments including the notification or completion of investigations in relation to Statements of Principles made by the Repatriation Medical Authority (RMA) for the purposes of section 120A(2) of the Veterans’ Entitlements Act 1986  (VEA) and section 338(2) of the Military Rehabilitation and Compensation Act 2004 (MRCA). These Acts require reference to be had to Statements of Principles made about particular conditions concerning injury, disease or death.
If the RMA gives notice that it intends to carry out an investigation in respect of a particular kind of condition, the Repatriation Commission cannot determine a claim made under the VEA about the incapacity or death of a person relating to that condition, until the RMA has determined a Statement of Principles or declares that it does not propose to determine a Statement of Principles about the condition.  Also during this period, claims under the MRCA cannot be determined, reconsidered or reviewed by either the Repatriation Commission, the Veterans’ Review Board or the AAT, until the RMA has determined a Statement of Principles about the condition concerned or declared it does not propose to do so.
Certain claims cannot succeed if the RMA has declared it does not propose to make a Statement of Principles in relation to the particular condition. 
Existing Statements of Principles are also reviewed, amended or revoked from time to time.
