Girl sent on own to Nauru: advocates AN unaccompanied teenage girl has been sent to Australia's detention centre on Nauru for processing, refugee advocates claim. Asylum Seeker Resource Centre spokeswoman Pamela Curr cited witnesses as saying the girl arrived by plane on Nauru on Wednesday. If correct, the girl may be the first unaccompanied minor to be sent to Nauru under the federal government's offshore processing regime. Labor frontbencher Tony Burke said on Wednesday that when he was immigration minister he did not transfer unaccompanied minors to Nauru because the facilities weren't "up to scratch." Immigration Minister Scott Morrison told reporters last Friday there were three unaccompanied minors on Nauru. He warned anyone thinking of coming to Australia by boat without a visa that being an unaccompanied minor would not prevent them being sent offshore, neither would a health condition. He said if anyone who was fit enough to get on a boat was fit enough to end up in offshore processing.
