{"title":"A return to the 10 year rule? The deportation of convicted New Zealander long-term residents from Australia under Section 501 of the <i>Migration Act</i>","authors":"Rebecca Powell","doi":"10.1080/10345329.2023.2263258","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/10345329.2023.2263258","url":null,"abstract":"ABSTRACTThis contemporary comment considers the consequences of the 2014 amendments to Section 501—the character test—of the Migration Act 1958 (Cth) and considerations of greater fairness, responsibility and social cohesion for long-term residents who experience character-based visa cancellation. New Zealanders have become the largest nationality group of people deported from Australia, a relatively new phenomenon in Australia’s deportation history. Many are long-term residents. The increasing numbers of deportations across the Tasman caused diplomatic rifts to emerge, testing the traditionally close relationship between Australia and Aotearoa, New Zealand. It raised the issues of fairness and where responsibility lies for the conduct of non-citizen long-term residents who call Australia home. Recognising the value of long-term non-citizen residents to the Australian community, those resident for a period of 10 years or more were once protected from criminal deportation under the Hawke-Keating Labor Governments. With a focus on New Zealanders and a commitment to reset diplomatic relations, the Albanese Government has returned to this ‘common sense’ approach. This contemporary comment draws on a systematic policy review to provide policy insights from the past and present to consider future directions for New Zealander and other long-term non-citizen Australian residents.KEYWORDS: crimmigration; deportationNew Zealanderspolicy Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1 As of 1 July 2023, New Zealander Special Category Visa (SCV) holders who have been resident in Australia for a period of four years or more are eligible to apply for Australian citizenship.

Since its introduction, problems with the technology have been reported, such as poor audio-visual quality and connectivity issues, causing trial delays and exacerbating witness anxiety. This study analyses the perceptions of 18 professionals (n = 18) across 5 Australian jurisdictions (Queensland, the Northern Territory, the Australian Capital Territory, South Australia and Western Australia) who regularly work with the technology. We used non-directive prompts to determine what problems (if any) still exist in Australian courtrooms, the cause and impact of these problems, and potential solutions. Key themes emerged in the analysis. Problems were still commonplace, which included operator error, quality of the recordings, and issues with the recording technology and devices. The detrimental impacts of these problems included added stress to court employees and witnesses, extended and disrupted trial proceedings, poor quality evidence, and added costs of fixing problems. Tangible recommendations for change were provided by the participants, and the overall findings and their implications were discussed.","PeriodicalId":43272,"journal":{"name":"Current Issues in Criminal Justice","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135981448","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
