My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer the Prime Minister to specific warnings received by the government in February 2008 that closing the Nauru processing centre would add to people smuggling. Given that since February 2008 there have been more than 9,000 illegal arrivals on 190 boats, how can the Prime Minister now be trusted to get other policies right, such as the $43 billion National Broadband Network, when she could not protect our borders?
