Parent Category Immigration visa

Azaria Bialik made this Official Information request to Iain Lees-Galloway

The request was partially successful.

From: Azaria Bialik

Dear Iain Lees-Galloway,

Following the written question by MP Melissa Lee from 07 Dec 2018 number 36373 that you avoided answering, could you please elaborate on what correspondence and reports, by title and date, have you received regarding Parent Category Immigration visa applications since June 2018 when the program was supposed to re-open?

Acknowledging the recent petition by David Barker to "Lift the moratorium on Parent Category Immigration visa applications" collecting over 5500 signatures and proving the public interest in the subject, could you make the correspondence and reports requested above be available to the public under the OIA?

Considering the information available to you at this point, is there any other information that you require to make a decision on the Parent Category Immigration visa?

Yours faithfully,
Azaria Bialik
