Novak Djokovic’s visa has been cancelled for the second time by Immigration Minister Alex Hawke, who exercised his controversial ministerial powers.

Mr Hawke released a statement saying the decision would quash the “prior cancellation decision” made by a judge.

“Today, I exercised my power under section 133C(3) of the Migration Act to cancel the visa held by Mr Novak Djokovic on health and good order grounds, on the basis that it was in the public interest to do so,” the statement read.

Mr Djokovic’s lawyers are expected to challenge this decision in court.
