The Labor Party says it will agree to the Coalition’s proposed New Zealand travel ban if it will break the political deadlock and get children and their families off Nauru.
Shadow immigration minister Shayne Neumann says the ALP will come to the table if Prime Minister Scott Morrison can guarantee acceptance of New Zealand’s long-standing offer to resettle the asylum seekers.
Neumann also says the “lifetime travel ban” Morrison intends to impose on resettled asylum seekers should only apply to one cohort.
