Attendance notices
268BD Attendance notices
This section applies if the Secretary or Australian Border Force Commissioner reasonably believes that an individual specified in subsection (3) has, or has access to, information or documents that are relevant to a visa monitoring purpose.
The Secretary or Australian Border Force Commissioner may give the individual written notice requiring the individual to attend before an authorised officer and answer questions about the matter.
The Secretary or Australian Border Force Commissioner may also give the individual a production notice: see section 268BA.
The individuals who may be given an attendance notice are:
an officer or employee of an education provider; or
a consultant to an education provider; or
a partner in an education provider; or
an individual trading as an education provider.
An attendance notice under this section may be given even if any relevant student visa is no longer in effect or the holder of any such visa is no longer enrolled in a course provided by the education provider.
