Australia to Detain Tourists Who Overstay Visas Amid Immigration Crackdown Australia's Home Affairs Minister, Tony Burke, has announced plans to detain tourists who overstay their visas.
This move is part of a broader immigration crackdown that raises questions about the government's motivations and the consequences for both overstayers and the country as a whole.
The latest figures show that more than 77,000 people are currently living in Australia without a valid visa.
