My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer him to the report, tabled today, of the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Public Works entitled Redevelopment of the Villawood Immigration Detention Facility. I specifically refer the Prime Minister to recommendation 3:

The Committee recommends that the Department of Finance and Deregulation ensure that the detailed design for the Villawood Immigration Detention Facility address the management plan for potential surge conditions.

Is the government preparing the centre to cope with the ongoing surge in unauthorised arrivals?
