For subsection 262(2) of the Act, the purpose of the instrument is to:

– determine the daily amount for a person in immigration detention, which reflects the current minimum cost to the Commonwealth of keeping and maintaining a person per day;

– specify each place for which the daily amount applies, which must be a place used to keep the person in immigration detention; and

– specify the period during which the daily amount applies for the specified places.

The instrument updates the matters specified in Migration (Daily Maintenance Amount for Persons in Detention) Determination Instrument (LIN 20/037) 2020 (F2020L01342), which ceases to determine a daily maintenance amount for a period after 30 June 2022.
