Justice at last: UN says Australia violated human rights of refugee children detained on Nauru
Refugee Advice & Casework Service (RACS) welcomes a landmark decision from the UN Human Rights Committee, which found Australia violated the human rights of a group of refugee children. The decision comes nine years after RACS lodged a complaint on behalf of a group of unaccompanied children who were arbitrarily detained on Nauru.
Statement of Concern – Media and Political Commentary on Direction 99
We are deeply concerned by the ongoing attacks in media and political commentary on Ministerial Direction 99 and independent decision-making in character matters by the Administrative Appeals Tribunal. These attacks are misleading and discriminatory and threaten the rule of law.
