Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. Given the surge in numbers on Christmas Island, can the minister tell the Senate whether processing times have increased and if so by how much? What assurances can the minister give the Senate that the processing times and appropriate standards will be met, as promised by the Rudd government, with the likely surge in the next 68 days?
