My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer the Prime Minister to the new fast-track access policy for asylum seekers offered to the 78 asylum seekers aboard the Oceanic Viking and specifically to the promise of assistance with housing. Will the Prime Minister inform the House whether this housing will be supplied from existing public housing and whether the asylum seekers will be fast-tracked ahead of other Australians already on public housing waiting lists?
