Immigration Minister Peter Dutton has pledged an extra eight-and-a-half million dollars from Australia for the United Nations refugee agency, the UNHCR.


Under former prime minister Tony Abbott, Australia approved plans to resettle 12 thousand Syrian refugees.

So far, fewer than 30 have been processed.

Mr Dutton says Australia is working through each case carefully, but what he is not saying is what the UNHCR wants to hear -- that Australia will accept even more people.
