The applicant who claims to be a citizen of Pakistan applied to the Department of Immigration for the visa on [date deleted under s.431(2) of the Migration Act 1958 as this information may identify the applicant] June 2012. 3. The delegate refused to grant the visa [in] August 2012, and the applicant applied to the Tribunal for review of that decision. RELEVANT LAW 4.

75190 Caswaname 13/06/02 16:20 Side 270 South-West Asia Major Developments For the first months of 2001, Afghanistan continued to experience the devastating effects of drought, human rights abuses, and continued conflict between the Taliban and Northern Alliance. Prior to September, attempts by the United Nations and donor governments to bring the warring Afghan factions to the negotiating table had failed. Despite this, some 21,000 refugees returned from Pakistan with UNHCR assistance. They were mostly Pashtuns who said they were going back to Afghanistan because they could no longer afford to live in Pakistan, where employment opportunities were becoming increasingly rare, and because they feared being deported. At the same time, more than 140,000 Afghans returned spontaneously from the Islamic Republic of Iran, without seeking assis- tance from UNHCR. Others, however, continued to flee to neighbouring countries in search of assistance. The Islamic Afghanistan Republic of Iran and Pakistan, meanwhile, adopted Islamic Republic of Iran a closed border policy and deported Afghans who Pakistan did not have the required travel documents. 75190 Caswaname 13/06/02 16:20 Side 271 South-West Asia South-West In the spring, in an apparent bid to deter Afghans ble cases to enter the country, authorising UNHCR from entering Pakistan, the Government of to establish a pre-registration camp near the border Pakistan stopped transferring newly arrived at Chaman, and to move new arrivals to new camps Afghans from a makeshift camp at Jalozai, where conditions were very bad, to more suitable Persons of Concern to UNHCR locations.

Jalozai Camp Nowshera District- Photograph by Syed Haider Ali
Floods in Pakistan Pakistan Health Cluster Bulletin No 6 5 August, 2010 Out -patient consultation in a static clinic operating in Nowshera district-Photo by Syed Haider Ali-WHO-EHA Highlights: Around 1.6 million people have been affected overnight in Punjab. A multi cluster rapid assessment mission (MCRAM) has commenced on 5 August. Infrastructure damage is hampering access to public health facilities in multiple locations in Khyber Paktunkhwa. The flood waters continue to destroy South of Punjab while heavy rains crippled lives in upper Sindh. One alert of acute watery diarrhea was reported from Chendangari village of FR Peshawar area where 70 patients have been reported so far though unconfirmed sources WHO, Government and Health Cluster partners are continuing the health response and struggling to reach communities and individuals in areas which are inaccessible. Situation Overview and Current Scope of Disaster Exact figures of deaths are still not clear but at least over 1,500 people have lost their lives with over a thousand injured. Initial findings of a WFP assessment suggest that some 250,000 families or 1.8 million people would be in need of assistance in KPK alone. These figures may rise as more areas are becoming accessible. The number of flood affectees in Punjab province is reported to be nearly 1.4 million people. According to UNOCHA some 4 million people have been affected due to country wide floods in Pakistan. Currently the flood wave of Indus River is in Muzaffargarh district (Southern Punjab) and after devastating Kot Addu town, it has entered Kot Mithon. -
IVAP Analysis Report April 2015
IVAP Analysis Report April 2015 IVAP is proudly funded by ECHO and DFID Background to KP/FATA Complex Emeregency The Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA) is a semi-autonomous tribal region in northwestern Pakistan. It borders Afghanistan as well as Pakistan’s Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Baluchistan provinces. More than 5 million people have been registered with the government and/or UNHCR as an internally displaced person (IDP) at some point since 2008 due to violent clashes in the country’s northwest region made up of FATA and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) province. The 2014 military operations in North Waziristan and Khyber Agencies aggravated the situation, leading to the displacement of a further 233,000 families (approximately 1.4 million people). According to latest estimates from the UNHCR (2014), there are currently 1.6 million registered IDPs in KP/FATA. The vast majority of IDPs in KP/FATA chose to live in host communities (97%) rather than in camps for cultural reasons, including the privacy of females and difficult living conditions in the camps. The rest, who often have no other option, live in IDP camps (3%) (WFP). OCHA and other sources put the proportion of displaced families living outside of camps at 90% (OCHA, 18 June 2014; NYT, 20 June 2014; Al-Jazeera, 26 June 2014; IDMC, 12 June 2013, p.6). Displacement is difficult in Pakistan, which is ranked 146th on the list of 186 countries covered by the Human Development Index (UNDP, 24 July 2014, p.159). An estimated one fifth of its population are poor across the country, while in the KP/FATA a staggering one third of the population are poor (FDMA/UNDP, 2012, p.5; HDR, 2013, p.18; HPG, May 2013, p.21; UNDP, 27 October 2011). -
