Sydney, Muharram 03, 1436, October 27, 2014, SPA -- Australia said Monday it has temporarily stopped processing visas for people from Ebola-affected West Africa, dpa reported. The new rules would apply to Sierra Leone, Liberia and Guinea and were aimed at preventing the spread of the virus to Australia, Immigration Minister Scott Morrison told Parliament. "These measures include temporarily suspending our immigration program, including our humanitarian program, from Ebola-affected countries, and this means we are not processing any application from these affected countries," Morrison said. --SPA 12:01 LOCAL TIME 09:01 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
