End mandatory detention!
I call on the Australian Parliament to end the policy of mandatory detention of asylum seekers and to work cooperatively on developing a regional framework to protect people fleeing persecution.
This includes:
- adopting a more flexible community release and support model to replace mandatory detention
- in exceptional cases where detention is seen as necessary there be an independent, judicial review after three months, with power to end the detention
- ensuring that no children are held in detention
- ensuring all so-called "irregular or unauthorised arrivals" have equal access to and protection under Australian law
- supporting countries in our region to offer more effective protection to asylum seekers and refugees
- ending the unhelpful and misleading political rhetoric surrounding asylum seekers and refugees and putting protection needs above divisive politics
