Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. I notice that there was not really any confirmation about whether the government has asked Mr Campos to voluntarily leave the country by 18 September. Is it a fact that the Attorney-General is considering issuing a criminal justice certificate that would allow Mr Campos to stay in Australia after 18 September while investigations into his alleged war crimes continue, but that this would do nothing to stop him from leaving the country to escape prosecution, and that the only way for the government to make sure that Mr Campos is brought to justice is, once and for all, to charge him for the horrific crimes which he is alleged to have committed?
