The “New Transportation”: The Removal of Māori, Pasifika and Pakeha Kiwis from Australia Under Section 501 of the Migration Act
摘要
Australia is inflicting a New Transportation on New Zealand and Pacific peoples, deporting people on “character grounds.” Many people who have made Australia their home have been removed, and many for petty crimes. Australia has stripped human rights principles out of its review processes, compelling people to seek justice in the United Nations Human Rights Committee. However, Australia never implements decisions of the Committee in arbitrary detention cases. Instead, it continues to repudiate its international obligations.
