FED:Govt bends on Nauru processing=3

Acting Prime Minister WAYNE SWAN, in consultation with Ms GILLARD and Cabinet, will
make a formal proposal to the coalition.

It hinges on the coalition agreeing to amend the Migration Act to allow the government
of the day to implement its policies following a High Court decision ruling it illegal
earlier this year.

Mr ABBOTT said earlier today the coalition remains opposed to processing in Malaysia
because it is not a signatory to the UN refugee convention.
