Officials from Australia and Papua New Guinea are still working on a plan to deal with the closure of the Manus Island detention centre and the fate of hundreds of asylum seekers.
PNG has flagged it wants to close down the facility after a Supreme Court ruled the centre was illegal.
"The two governments agreed to continue to work together on a roadmap that would ensure the Papua New Guinea government's compliance with the court's orders," a joint statement from both countries said.
PNG and Australia had a long history of cooperation on many fronts and the discussions are continuing in this spirit, the statement said.
