AT A GLANCE
Paragraph 2 specifies commencement on 31 October 2026.
Paragraph 3 revokes Direction 110 from commencement.
Reporting scope: The link is to the Minister’s signed document hosted by No Worries Migration, not a Home Affairs download. Its first page, signature and paragraphs 2–3 were inspected.
What the document says
The copy bears Tony Burke’s signature and the date 18 September 2026. Paragraphs 2 and 3 specify commencement on 31 October 2026 and revocation of Direction 110 from that date.
How this updates earlier monitoring
The earlier position that no operative text had been located is superseded by this document check. Read the direction applicable to the decision date; historical Direction 110 judgments remain case notes about that earlier framework.
