We at the Home to Bilo campaign would like to extend our thoughts to those currently caught in the coronavirus outbreak. We understand that Christmas Island will be used as a quarantine area for Australians being evacuated from Wuhan and Hubei province. 

We have repeatedly called for Priya, Nades, and their two young daughters to be returned to mainland Australia. Their ongoing detention on Christmas Island has isolated and traumatised this young family. This new development confirms that the most appropriate place for them is in their home, Biloela

We will be monitoring the situation to ensure that Priya, Nades, Kopika and Tharunicaa are not put at risk during this process.
