The Catholic Justice & Peace Commission of the Archdiocese of Brisbane joins with the Social Justice Commission of the Diocese of Toowoomba in calling on the Australian Government to end the current crisis on Manus Island by bringing all the refugees and men seeking asylum on Manus Island to Australia. The two Commissions also urge the Australian Government to accept the New Zealand Government’s offer to resettle 150 refugees.

Dear Peter
Thank you for passing on your statement on Manus Island. Attached is our own news release on this released yesterday. We would appreciate it being distributed in some way in Australia. I understand Philip Cass was in contact with you as we prepared this.
Kind regards.
