I can take on notice the exact costings for Senator Fierravanti-Wells. No doubt she will be able to seek as much information as she needs at the next estimates hearing. I remind her that those costs are being met while we house people at the Christmas Island detention centre, built by the Howard government at a cost of $400 million.
