Sussan Ley’s shadow immigration minister has “serious concerns” over a proposal to ban migrants from specific regions of 13 countries – including from Gaza, Afghanistan and Somalia – outlined in a leaked hardline Liberal immigration plan.

Guardian Australia understands the banned regions, outlined in the policy designed before Ley was ousted as Liberal party leader on Friday, were based on areas where listed terrorist organisations have territorial control.
