"The Inquiry will investigate, examine and report on matters relating to the case of Cornelia Rau, including in particular the actions of DIMIA [Department of Immigration and Multicultural and Indigenous Affairs] and relevant state agencies, during the period March 2004 to February 2005. In particular the Inquiry will: examine and make findings on the sequence of events that gave rise to her being held in immigration detention, examine and make findings on the circumstances, actions and procedures which resulted in her remaining unidentified during the period in question, examine and make findings on measures taken to deal with her medical condition and other care needs during that period, examine and make findings on the systems and processes of, and cooperation between, relevant state and commonwealth agencies in relation to identification/location of missing persons and provision of mental health services"--Appendix A. The Inquiry's terms of reference
"On 2 May 2005 a request to examine the circumstances surrounding the removal from Australia of Ms Vivian Alvarez/Solon/Young, an Australian citizen, was referred to the Inquiry by the Acting Minister. Thee is no documentary or other evidence that any DIMIA officer personally made the decision to remove Ms Alvarez from Australia. Rather, DIMIA officers have said they acted, as a matter of course, under the provisions of the Migration Act."--Appendix A. The Inquiry's terms of reference
From October 2004 onwards, Cornelia Rau was detained in Baxter Immigration Detention Facility
