PNG has the death penalty... It has a problem with children and women being raped and that is why they have reintroduced it. And the new minister wants to send women and children there... including unaccompanied minors... 

It has thousands of people living in shanty towns because there are no jobs, housing or welfare to suit. 

Will this stand up to court appeals???? I don't think so. 

Australia will be paying for these people to live there... building them homes, paying their welfare, providing all medical assistance...  for as long as it takes... 

I do not think that this is the right solution... 

One thing I do agree with is the reward for dobbing in a people smuggler... that is a very good idea.
