Human rights groups say they want more detail on the plan to resettle refugees on Nauru and Manus Island to the US.
Human rights groups say the government's US refugee resettlement deal announcement is full of holes.
Representatives from groups including the Human Rights Law Centre and Australian Churches Refugee Taskforce told reporters in Melbourne the US resettlement of asylum seekers from Nauru and Manus Island was a government concession that the offshore centres were "dead ends".
"This announcement is full of holes. No time frame, no numbers, no plan for what looks like the hundreds of people who will be left behind," HRLC director of legal advocacy Daniel Webb said.
