My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer the Prime Minister to his pre-election promise to take ‘a very hard line on the question of people smuggling, a very tough line on people smuggling’. How does this reconcile with the extraordinary fact that the government has transferred to Australia four Tamil refugees who were on board the Oceanic Viking as a result of the government’s special deal, despite receiving adverse security assessments from ASIO?
