54. 政府不同意来文方的说法，即由于高等法院在 Al-Kateb 诉 Godwin 一案中的裁决，非公民没有办法对行政拘留决定提出质疑。在 Al-Kateb 诉 Godwin 一案中，高等法院认为，《移民法》中要求拘留非公民直到他们被驱逐或获得签证的规定是合法的，即使驱逐在可预见的将来不太可行。非公民仍然有权根据《宪法》对联邦官员寻求补救。因此，该国政府认为，在 Al-Kateb 诉 Godwin 一案中的裁决并没有改变非公民根据澳大利亚法律质疑其受拘留合法性的能力。此外，非公民也能够通过人身保护令等行动质疑拘留他们的合法性。
54. The Government disagrees with the source’s claim that, as a result of the decision of the High Court in Al-Kateb v. Godwin, non-citizens have no means of challenging administrative detention decisions. In Al-Kateb v. Godwin the High Court held that the provisions of the Migration Act requiring the detention of non-citizens until they are removed or granted a visa, even if removal is not reasonably practicable in the foreseeable future, are lawful. The right to seek a remedy against an officer of the Commonwealth under the Constitution is still available to non-citizens. Therefore, the Government argues that the decision in Al-Kateb v. Godwin does not alter non-citizens’ ability to challenge the lawfulness of their detention under Australian law. Furthermore, non-citizens are also able to challenge the lawfulness of their detention through actions such as habeas corpus.
