The Albanese Government’s new $2.3 billion deal with the US private prison operator, Management and Training Corporation (MTC), to run Australia’s onshore immigration detention network marks a troubling departure from its promise that “detention will occur in a government-run immigration detention centre."
It’s not like they had a lot to choose from (though they could have tried not outsourcing at all…) as the other big names here like Serco, Wilsons and G4 have proven themselves even worse.
