More foreign-born criminals are set to be booted out of Australia under draft laws introduced to federal parliament.
Under the bill which hit the lower house on Thursday, anyone convicted of an offence punishable by at least two years in prison could have their visa cancelled - regardless of whether they were jailed for less time, or not jailed at all.
The laws would capture violent and sexual crimes including riots, home invasions, carjackings and serious breaches of family violence orders.
