From Morning Report, 7:51 am on 31 May 2018

An Australian immigration lawyer says the locking up of a New Zealand boy in an immigration centre is a new low for his country. The boy, aged under 18, is being held in a detention facility alongside adults, according to a report from Australia's Department of Home Affairs. But Australian authorities have refused to reveal details of his conditions, despite repeated requests from RNZ. Edward Gay filed this report.
