  • Summary

  • On Nauru, there are close to 100 asylum seekers who have been released from detention but are currently living hand-to-mouth. They are forbidden to work on the island, and are surviving on a stipend of $230 a fortnight – which they say is not even enough for three meals a day. The Australian government has mostly succeeded in keeping offshore processing off the front pages, but as boat arrivals continue, Nauru remains central to the Australian government’s immigration response. Today, contributor to The Saturday Paper Denham Sadler on surviving on Nauru and whether Australia’s policy of offshore detention will ever end.
