Protesters are intensifying their calls for a hospitalised asylum-seeker baby to stay in Australia amid fears she and 266 others will be returned to immigration detention on Nauru.

It opened the way for the group, which the Federal Government intended remain in Australia only temporarily, to be deported back to the island.
