US President Donald Trump has confirmed his administration will honour a refugee resettlement deal Australia made with the Obama administration.
The deal had come into question after Mr Trump signed an executive order suspending his country's refugee program.
Mr Trump yesterday put a four-month hold on allowing refugees into the US and temporarily barred travellers with passports from seven Muslim-dominated countries.
But the ABC understands Mr Trump confirmed he would honour the resettlement deal during a phone call to Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull this morning.
Before the call, Mr Turnbull said there is a section in Mr Trump's executive order which states officials can still admit refugees under pre-existing international agreements.
The ABC understands that section was included in the final version of the executive order after the Prime Minister's office intervened.
"We are very confident and satisfied that existing arrangements will continue," Mr Turnbull said before the call.
"It's quite clear that the administration has set out in the order the ability to deal with existing arrangements."
