We are talking about Mr Abbott here.

Senator Back interjecting—

Senator Back, you can talk in your speech. This is my opportunity to say a few words, Senator Back, and I want to talk about what Mr Abbott said. When he was asked the question, he said:

Well, that’s the kind of operational question that would have to be worked out by the commander on the spot … I’m not going to set myself up as an expert, but what’s been done in the past can under the right conditions be done again in the future.

That is his policy.
