PM CLARIFIES TFF POLICY Prime Minister James Marape has assured Parliament, that no student will be pushed out from the formal education system, despite the slashing of the Tuition Fee Free Policy by 50 percent. Mr. Marape said this when clarifying statements made by the former Prime Minister Peter O'Neill, and Opposition Leader Belden Namah that more than a million students will be pushed out of school if there is a cut in the TFF funding. He also explained that the Government is not removing the Free Education Policy, but has only reduced funding by half. ''People and Parliamentarians should not be going around misleading people that they have completely removed it," said Marape. Prime Minister Marape said that they have reduced it by half, and the onus is now on all MPs to support parents by paying the other 25 percent, while parents can only meet the remaining 25 percent. He also added that they have decided to cut back on the TFF Policy at the Elementary to Grade 12 level, because the cost of education at that level is much lower than the tertiary level, and this can still be afforded by parents.

Manus detention could be illegal under PNG law

Manus Island detention could be illegal under PNG’s constitution. This is a big deal! It could be the best chance we’ve got of seeing Manus detention closed! But not many people know about the case currently in PNG's Supreme Court. Here are the facts:

Belden Namah (PNG opposition leader) is the one who’s taken it to court.

Namah’s argument is that Manus detention breaches the PNG constitution’s guarantee of ‘liberty’ for all (not just PNG citizens).

Julian Burnside QC and others think this has a good chance.

That’s great, but it’s been a hard slog for Namah to get this case heard: there have been fights on which court has jurisdiction; does Namah have standing; PNG govt threatening to pass legislation that outlaws this constitutional challenge; and Manus officials defying a court order for Namah’s lawyers to be allowed access to detainees.

But! Namah has dealt with these hurdles and the case is on track. It’s currently at PNG’s Supreme Court, though it's unclear when it will be resolved.

Lastly, it should be noted, that the Abbott govt (with our money) is bankrolling the PNG govt’s legal team.
