A judge has approved the $70 million compensation payout for current and former Manus Island detainees.
Victorian Supreme Court Justice Cameron Macaulay on Wednesday said he has approved the settlement reached with the Australian government and operators of the Manus Island Regional Processing Centre.
Lawyers hope to be able to get $70 million in compensation paid to current and former Manus Island detainees before the offshore immigration detention centre closes at the end of October.
