Australia's Labor Party could come around to the coalition's newfound desire to get asylum seekers off Nauru.

The coalition government may take up our offer of 150 refugees settling here, as long as none of them can ever go to Australia again.

Sky News Australia Political Editor Kieran Gilbert told Mike Hosking the Labor Party is still unsure about the travel ban.

"There is still some doubt on whether they will back it, but the party is definitely the best chance for Nauru refugees wanting to come to New Zealand."
