Visits are a lifeline for refugees and asylum seekers in immigration detention. Serco's new regulations attempts to cut that lifeline. Visitors are now required to phone and book a timeslot more than 24 hours in advance, nominate the people they will visit and be assigned a table number. This process denies detainees access to the visits centre if they have not been nominated, meaning that new arrivals to the centre get no visits. 6pm. Broadmeadows Detention Centre, 120-150 Camp Rd, Broadmeadows. Organised by Refugee Action Collective.
