Document Summary

She objected to the process by which the decision to deport her was made saying that it was unfair to notify her in writing having never interviewed her, her canadian-born children or their father. The nature of the law being applied (c. ) When you appeal, courts will not allow the introduction of new evidence: another factor to be considered in determining how extensively procedural fairness must be applied concerns how important the decision is to the lives of those affected. However, the court hastens to add that this notion does not apply to substantive rights - in other words, a particular outcome. It is unfair for them to depart from their usual processes: the final factor the court spells out can be stated simply. Just, equitable, objective, impartial, without bias, humane, decency, reasonableness. Procedural fairness: is about dialogue, transparency, respect and the opportunity to be heard is variable and flexible in its application.
