Australian Immigration News 24 January 2020
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
- ABC Online reports a family that was facing deportation due their West Australian-born child's disability is now likely to receive a three-year visa. The family presented a counter argument to the Administrative Appeals Tribunal in April 2019 after the Department of Home Affairs concluded there was no sufficient "compelling" or "compassionate" grounds for the child to be granted a health waiver, and the tribunal then "remitted the matter to the department with the direction that he meets the requirements for the waiver of the health requirement", indicating the likelihood that the department will grant a temporary visa.
- Hobart Mercury reports the operators of a rooftop cocktail bar in Melbourne are being accused of underpaying a British bartender in Australia on a working holiday visa. The Fair Work Ombudsman has launched legal action against C&H Entertainment Pty Ltd, which operates The Red Hummingbird bar in Melbourne, as well as its company director and manager, claiming the company breached the Fair Work Act by failing to backpay the worker after he was underpaid.
