David Farrar: The solution is to deport quicker

The Herald reports:

Daman Kumar – the 18-year-old threatened with deportation to India despite living in New Zealand all his life – has been offered residency.

Green Party immigration spokesman Ricardo Menéndez March told the Herald he was informed of the development by Associate Immigration Minister Chris Penk’s office this afternoon.
