"Last week, independent MP Andrew Wilkie reintroduced to federal parliament the
Ending Indefinite and Arbitrary Immigration Detention Bill 2022. This bill
gives Australia the chance to bring its immigration detention regime in line
with basic international law requirements for the first time since 1992.

Wilkie’s bill presents a timely opportunity for the new federal government to
reform a regime that leading legal and human rights organisations have called
“inhumane, unnecessary, and unlawful”."
