"The decision by the High Court of Australia this week overturning the legality
of indefinite immigration detention marks a watershed moment in Australian
legal history.

For almost two decades, stateless people have faced the prospect of spending
their lives behind bars.

Now, a stateless Rohingya refugee has been released from detention.

With no “stateless” visa category or pathway to permanency, stateless people
will continue to face a life of uncertainty in the Australia community, begging
the question; what next?"
