Former prime minister Tony Abbott said people on Nauru were overwhelmingly economic migrants, rejecting calls to bring children to Australia for medical care. Health services on Nauru for boat people are much more extensive than the health services that a lot of regional towns get here in Australia, Mr Abbott said.

Mr Abbott says people on Nauru are very well looked after despite a leading Australian paediatricians warning children could die if they are not taken elsewhere.
