Can Australia deport you to New Zealand?

I'm living in Australia and about to be declared bankrupt in New Zealand. Can they bring us back? We sold everything to come here hoping to make good, but it didn't quite work out. What's the worst they can do to us??

I'm pretty sure people are only extradited back to New Zealand for serious criminal offences. However, if you decide to return to New Zealand, you may find you can't leave again for up to 3 years as this is usually a condition of the bankruptcy.
