My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer him to his answer in the House yesterday regarding the Oceanic Viking. He said:

… I cannot recall each step in that sequence of events.

Now that the Prime Minister has had an opportunity to check the sequence of events, will he now inform the House when he was first notified that the people aboard the Oceanic Viking would not be permitted to land at the port of Merak and instead would be transferred to the Tanjung Pinang detention centre? What was his own involvement in these decisions?
