Manus ‘residence’ inquiry stopped

The same judges who sat on the Supreme Court bench on April 26, that found the detainment of Asylum seekers in the Manus centre illegal and unconstitutional,   today issued orders discharging that inquiry.

The inquiry was discharged and stopped from continuing today after the court agreed that the inquiry was being conducted without a terms of reference.
