Australia and PNG sign a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) re transfer of people

I guess this shows us a little bit more detail about 'What PNG is getting out of this'.  I am not sure this really is a solution to the 'boat people' problem facing Australia since the Labor government came into power, but what it does do is give migrants and migration agents a little more of the nitty gritty on the 'arrangement'.  I still can't see PNG getting a whole lot of of this deal.   Will they be sending Women?  Children?  I don't think so.  

Anyway, the link to the new arrangement can be found below and is taken from the DIAC website:

Is this yet another knee-jerk reaction to a serious and emerging problem at Australia's borders?  With the elections coming on 7 September, perhaps if there is a change of government this will be completely scapped.
