PREMIER Annastacia Palaszczuk has been accused of inciting people smugglers and encouraging them to send refugees to Australia illegally.

Immigration Minister Peter Dutton yesterday slammed Ms Palaszczuk for sending a message to smugglers in Indonesia that Australia’s tough policy would soon be changed.

The comments came as authorities prepared to move asylum-seeker baby “Asha” from a Brisbane hospital to community detention.

“We are going to have a consistency of approach here because I can tell you that ­intelligence out of Indonesia recently was that people smugglers were reporting the comments of Premiers, including Palaszczuk … to say that there was going to be a change in the policy,” Mr Dutton said.

“People had prepaid deposits and all sorts of things to get on boats. We know there are about 14,000 people in Indonesia today who would get on boats tomorrow.”

Ms Palaszczuk wrote to Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull two weeks ago, saying she stood ready to accept asylum seekers into the state. Yesterday, she reiterated her stance.

“The fact it took a hospitalised baby girl, hundreds of people from across our community taking a principled stand in front of the hospital and expressions of disappointment from thousands more to finally move Immigration Minister Peter Dutton speaks volumes about his lack of character and compassion,” she said.

Mr Dutton yesterday said the Federal Government would not deviate in its policies, saying placing Asha and her family in community detention was not a long-term solution.

“ I’m not going to allow a situation where we have ­people harmed to come to our country to receive medical ­assistance and then they think there’s a formula for them to be released into the community. That is not going to happen,” Mr Dutton said.

In response to advocacy groups claiming victory after it was announced Asha would be moved by the end of Monday to community detention, Mr Dutton said community detention first was what “we’ve proposed all along”, before the family’s case is considered and a decision is made on whether they be returned to Nauru.

As reported by The Courier-Mail last Wednesday, doctors at Brisbane’s Lady Cilento Children’s Hospital agreed with immigration officers the 13-month-old could be moved into community detention, possibly at Pinkenba.

Medical staff had refused to discharge her if she was to be sent back to the island detention centre on Nauru.

Authorities had planned to move Asha yesterday but the decision was delayed, with Queensland Police stepping up their role in the operation.

Officers from the Public Safety Response Team and police negotiators descended on the hospital.

Mr Dutton did not rule out the family being sent back to Nauru or to their home country if they were found to not have a legitimate asylum claim.

The child has been at the hospital since January 26, after burning herself with boiling water at the detention centre in Nauru.

Mr Dutton said a bed shortage also played into doctors’ decision to agree to community detention.

“I understand there are some pressures at the hospital in terms of bed space and the rest of it but that is an issue for the Queensland Government.”

Darwin Asylum Seeker and Support Advocacy Network co-ordinator Natasha Blucher had been in contact with Asha’s parents and said they were pleased with the decision to be moved to community detention.

Asha’s father was relocated to the Pinkenba site when his family was taken to the hospital.

Really???

People smuggling is a crime in both Indo & Aust.

If you "KNOW" 14K of people have paid deposits, one would assume you would know to who those deposits went & therefore could arrest & break up this apparently lucrative speculation on Australian Immigration Laws.

My bet seeing as the interview ended with dickhead dutton rabbiting on about "Union Bosses" running the country is he wouldn't actually have a clue or any evidence of the deposits & is lying his arse off.

1. Never was it said that 14,000 had pre-paid deposits. He had reports of some. AND 2. Australian immigration laws mean nothing in Indonesia.

This Government pays people smugglers.

It just goes to show that if Labor got in next election the mess would start straight back up again . Annastacia Palaszczuk, Rat Faced Bowen and the other retards would make sure of that.

faark me this government is completely unhinged.

How dare a premier express concern over the welfare of a baby under our care.

You're wrong. I don't like  the idea of children drowning. It's people smuggling supporters like you who obviously want it to occur. Kids wouldn't drown if the world had my opinion on the matter.

You'd rather see them bombed to death in Syria.

He never said 14,000 people had pre-paid people smugglers with the intention of getting on a boat to come here. He said that there are about 14,000 people in Indonesia today who would get on boats tomorrow. That's entirely different. Who da dickhead? YOU DA DICKHEAD!!!  :D :D :D

You can add the premier of NSW and Tasmania, dear. They all want refugees - Tasmania in particular. Out in regional areas, they're suffering from a lack of workers.

Why do you think the Libs are revising their backpacker tax idea? The premiers and regional leaders want more people.

That comment means they are making their own problems. It's beyond Australia's power to fix it.

It's ok. Peccahead has been exposed for what he is - just a troll looking for cheap shot one-liners - and he's grasping at straws now.

I wrote my response based on how the DT wanted the article perceived.(I even highlighted those 2 things)

Putting deposits & 14k in the same sentence what does Mr pleb remember when recalling the article?

14K have paid deposits.

My question still stands, why haven't those who accepted these "Deposits" been arrested?

Because there are no deposits, it just sounded great.

Because if they had it would have been on the front page of our favourite political daily & posted in gloating terms by our favourite lapdog.

Can you guess either?

I suppose the other solution is for Government to ensure better Hospital/Medical facilities on Nauru.  If that happened, there'd be no need for sick people to be sent to Australia for treatment.

Palaszczuk slammed for baby Asha comments

I was going to take this seriously but then I realised that the criticism was only the ravings of a lunatic.

Immigration Minister Peter Dutton yesterday slammed Ms Palaszczuk for sending a message to smugglers in Indonesia that Australia’s tough policy would soon be changed.

But Aussie Mr Dutton has told us the facilities on Nauru are better than regional hospitals in Australia.

Immigration Minister Peter Dutton said the new wing of the hospital was better than some rural hospitals.

Well, it's not like he would tell a lie.

This Government doesn't do that sort of thing.
