Professionals Against the Border Force Act: A 30-minute silent vigil
Saturday July 11th
09.30am at The Big Banana
The Border Force Act 2015 carries penalties of up to two years in prison
for unauthorised disclosure of information related to immigration detention. It
prejudices the ability of healthcare professionals to do their jobs.
The AMA, RACP, RACGP, ACEM, AMSA, ACN, RANZCP and others have called for
urgent amendments to the Act to allow health care professionals and child
welfare workers to advocate effectively for their asylum seeker and refugee patients.
Silent vigils have been held all round Australia to protest at this
repressive, anti-democratic legislation.
Please join us on Saturday to show that people in Coffs Harbour and the
Mid North Coast care too.
