Australia to detain tourists who overstay visas
–
Neutral summary
The Australian government has announced that tourists who overstay their visas will be placed in immigration detention as part of a broader crackdown on migration. Home Affairs Minister Tony Burke said the measure is intended to act as a deterrent and reduce the number of visa overstayers, which is estimated at more than 77,000 people. The government has also announced restrictions on student and working holiday visas, including a reduction in places and a lottery system for the latter. The policy has drawn criticism from the Greens and advocates, who compare it to Donald Trump's immigration crackdown, though Burke dismissed such comparisons as a “ridiculous claim”.
