To Minister Dutton
Thank you for releasing the medevac refugees recently. This is news we have been long awaiting. Now….what about the remaining approximately 150 refugees in community detention?
We request that they be released immediately and that they be given all the medical assistance that they so desperately need.
You yourself, Minister Dutton, have said that releasing refugees from detention is “a cost saving measure” (quite heartless words actually) so why not save the billions of dollars the taxpayers provide so that your government can keep in detention the Sri Lankan family on Christmas Is and those on Nauru and in PNG. We haven’t forgotten them.
Minister, could you please let me know why you are not accepting the NZ offer to take 150 refugees ANNUALLY? They will be well cared for there and out of your responsibility.
Thank you for your attention
Margaret H and Georgina S
