Manus centre's future remains in limbo
The fate of hundreds of asylum seekers detained in the Manus Island offshore immigration detention centre remains unclear. Papua New Guinea's Prime Minister has announced the processing centre will close, following a Supreme Court ruling that it was unconstitutional. A date for its closure is yet to be confirmed. But the Australian government has repeated the assertion that the detainees, which are all male and include both asylum seekers and refugees, will never be settled on Australian soil.
