GREGORY GEORGE ANCEL ALLEN

Respondent

SUPPLEMENTARY JUDGMENT AND REASONS

[1]  On July 12, 2019, the Court dismissed as moot the Minister’s application for judicial review of the decision of the Immigration Division of the Immigration and Refugee Board of Canada to order Mr. Allen’s release from detention.

[2]  As part of the Court’s Judgment, counsel were asked to provide written submissions with respect to whether any serious question of general importance should be certified under section 74(d) of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act, SC 2001, c 27.

[3]  On July 29, 2019, counsel for the Minister wrote to the Court indicating that the applicant would not be seeking the certification of any question of general importance.

[4]  Also on July 29, 2019, counsel for Mr. Allen wrote to the Court indicating that he took no position on the certification of a question as Mr. Allen had been removed from Canada and he had not been able to contact him to discuss the matter with him.

[5]  I am satisfied that no questions of general importance warranting certification arise and none will be stated.
