During late 2005 and 2006 The Justice Project continued its campaign against mandatory detention and related issues. The Cornelia Rau and Vivian Alvarez affairs showed that mandatory detention in all its forms is a completely flawed and discredited policy. We called for a Royal Commission into mandatory detention, viewed with alarm plans for a new detention facility at Christmas Island and supported Liberal backbencher Petro Georgiou MP and colleagues in their proposed introduction of two Private Member's Bills intended to address Australia's mandatory detention policy.
