From Lately, 10:20 pm on 15 March 2021

The Prime Minister has asked for more information about a 15-year-old boy sent back to New Zealand by Australia on last week's flight of so-called 501 deportees. Karyn will speak with Children's Commissioner, Judge Andrew Becroft, who also has a number of questions about how this deportation aligns with the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child which both New Zealand and Australia have ratified.
