And please notice they are only talking about 32. 25,16,11. And in April 2007 they even thought of using it for detainees from Guantanimo,because they were running out of asylum seekers!
"Two camps were then built.[2] The first camp, called "Topside", was at an old sports ground and oval in the Meneng District (0°32'26?S 166°55'47?E? / ?0.540564°S 166.929703°E? / -0.540564; 166.929703? (Camp Topside)). The second camp, called "State House" was on the site of the old Presidential quarters also in the Meneng District (0°32'51?S 166°56'23?E? / ?0.547597°S 166.939697°E? / -0.547597; 166.939697? (Camp State House)).[1][3][4][5][6]
By July 2005, 32 people were detained in asylum seeker detention in Nauru, consisting of 16 Iraqis, 11 Afghans, 2 Iranians, 2 Bangladeshis and 1 Pakistani.[7] All but two Iraqis were released to Australia, the last group of 25 leaving on 1 November 2005. The remaining two Iraqis stayed in custody for over a year. The last one was finally accepted by an unnamed Scandinavian country after five years in detention, in January 2007. The other was in an Australian hospital at the time, and was later given permission to remain in Australia while his asylum case was being decided.
In September 2006, a group of eight Burmese Rohingya men were transferred there from Christmas Island[8].
On 15 March 2007, the Australian Government announced that 83 Sri Lankan Tamil people would be transferred from Christmas Island to the Nauru detention center.[9] They arrived in Nauru by the end of the month.
In April 2007, proposals were discussed whereby detainees in Guantánamo, Cuba, would be transferred to Australia, and detainees in Nauru would be processed for possible settlement in the United States.
In December 2007, newly elected Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd announced that his country would no longer make use of the Nauru detention center, and would put an immediate end to the "Pacific Solution". The last remaining Burmese and Sri Lankan detainees were granted residency rights in Australia.[10][11]
Nauru reacted with concern at the prospect of potentially losing much-needed aid from Australia.[12]"
