Neither of the doctors personally interviewed or physically examined the applicant or otherwise personally engaged with him.
However, Justice Mordy Bromberg said the idea of"personal engagement" ran counter to the purpose of the medevac laws, which were put in place for"transitory people for whom personal engagement with a treating doctor is not possible or not practicable".
Labor's home affairs spokeswoman Kristina Keneally says the government will continue to"cry wolf" over the laws.
nakarithorpe Good. None of them should be there anyway. Bring them here.
bluedpn the only problem i have with this is that i can see a situation when government doctors can asses you if you have put a claim in and without any physical interaction, asses how you are medically, different from your doctors assessment.....and then you have to prove them wrong ?
Yet I still have to be physically seen by a doctor just to get a sick certificate.
Deport this vermin asap
Excellent reason why this legislation should be repealed asap. In the case in question, CCA19 v Secretary, Department of Home Affairs, the Court's ordered that the approval given to the Applicant (refugee) on 2 May 2019 to travel to Taiwan also covers travel to Australia.
Oh good. How efficient. So are we getting rid of all face to face medical consultations then if they are fully effective?
Good
That seems fair.
