Tameh v MCI 2008 FC 884 Ministerial relief failure to consider all factors

. In Tameh v MCI 2008 FC 884 the Court set aside a decision denying ministerial relief. In this case the court found that the briefing note sent to the Minister with a recommendation did not contain all of the relevant information. The Minister therefore could not make an informed decision based on all of the circumstances and the decision was set aside. The Court noted: “Given the workload of Ministers of the Crown, I share Justice Strayer's view that merely attaching information to a Briefing Note not will suffice to demonstrate that highly relevant information relating to an application for Ministerial relief was indeed considered by the Minister.”
