STATEMENT BY KATZ J

 

1                     On 12 April 2000, a Full Court of which I was a member gave judgment in Minister for Immigration & Multicultural Affairs v Savvin [2000] FCA 478.

2                     For reasons partly of a technical nature, my reasons for judgment published on that date contained numerous typographical and formatting errors.  A document which listed the necessary typographical and formatting corrections to those reasons would be quite unwieldy and I have therefore decided that the better course is to withdraw those reasons in their entirety and to publish a new set of reasons with the typographical and formatting errors corrected.

3                     That new set of reasons is attached.  Apart from the typographical and formatting corrections, it is identical to the set of reasons which was published on 12 April 2000.



                                                                        ………………………….

                                                                        Justice Leslie Katz
