61A: Grant of visas by special direction

You could also call this:

“This section about granting special visas has been removed from the law”

This part of the law has been removed. It used to be about granting visas by special direction, but it no longer applies. The government took it out of the Immigration Act 2009 on 15 May 2023. This means that this specific way of getting a visa is no longer available.
