Freedom of Information Request FA 22/08/01161 
In the period that the Hon Karen Andrews MP was Minister for Home Affairs, she made fewer than 
five decisions under the following sections of the Migration Act 1958: 501J, 501, 500A, 501, 501B, 
501BA, 501C, 501A, 501CA, 501D.  
Each decision was either to cancel or refuse a visa. 
Caveats: 

Figures were extracted from Departmental systems on 8 August 2022. As data has been drawn from
a live systems environment, the figures provided may differ slightly in previous or future reporting.

Regarding Immigration data, the Department’s current policy is to mask numbers which are less than
five as <5, noting we are reviewing the confidentiality method for the future.
