Yes, that is how the Federal Court works, given the fact that it is a tribunal. We cannot change that. People have the right to appeal to the Federal Court.
We requested statistics on the number of processed files and the acceptance rate at each one of these steps. We wanted to know the approval rates at the PRRA stage, the pre-removal risk assessment, as well as the acceptance rate of humanitarian applications. We have still yet to receive these statistics.
We also requested information on costs. How much does a system that forces people to appeal to the Federal Court cost? The number of cases heard by the Federal Court is enormous. It is 80% of the cases.
We also asked you to tell us the number of people who have made multiple applications.
