Serco, a controversial migration and security multinational, has lost its Government contract to run immigration detention centres in Australia.

It had held the contract since 2009 – a period that had been marked by violence and neglect of people in detention.

Recently the Australian Government told Serco its contract would not be renewed – meaning a new path is possible for immigration detention.

Grace Gooley, Senior Solicitor at the Justice and Equity Centre joined 2SER Breakfast to discuss Serco’s time in charge and what’s next for immigration detention.
