My question is to the Prime Minister. Is the Prime Minister aware that yesterday Senator Vanstone greeted a report on the wrongful detention of Australian kids with the claim: ‘It was a good day for the government’? Is the Prime Minister also aware that on The 7.30 Report last night Senator Vanstone dodged responsibility for mismanagement of the Immigration portfolio no less than six times by blaming previous governments, ministers and the media? Does the Prime Minister accept any responsibilities for this: Cornelia Rau, Vivienne Alvarez and the other cases of wrongful detention?
