The adequacy of the arrangements in Nauru is being reviewed in toto. It could remain, as was announced, with some improvements at the margin, or it may be sensible to review what was announced in a more comprehensive way. We have had over 1,500 people successfully processed in the past through Nauru. There is a significant population on Nauru. Notwithstanding that, given the new developments and the legislation, there is a review of the adequacy of those arrangements and they are currently under consideration.
