Senator Steve Fielding, leader of the Family First Party, will be joined by prominent academic, Nick Economou and Australasian Debating Champion, Amit Golder to argue that mandatory detention is a crucial pillar of Australia\u2019s national security.<\/p>\n

Adam Bandt, the first Greens MP in the Federal Parliament\u2019s House of Representatives, will be joined by former leader of the Democrats, Lyn Allison and a representative from Amnesty International to argue that mandatory detention is a cruel and inhumane policy.<\/p>\n
