AUSTRALIAN acting Prime Minister Julia Gillard said today that her government can resettle the terror suspects held at the US military prison in Guantanamo Bayon condition of a rigorous assessment process.
Gillard said in a statement that Australia, along with a number of other countries, had been approached to consider resettling detainees from Guantanamo Bay.
"Any determination for an individual to come to Australia would be made on a case-by-case basis," she said, adding "for anyone to be accepted they would have to meet Australia's strict legal requirement and go through normal rigorous assessment processes."
US president-elect Barack Obama has pledged to shut down the prison, located at a US sovereign naval base in Cuba, within two years.
