My question is to the Minister representing the Minister for Immigration and Citizenship, Senator Carr. Giving the increasingly conflicting statements by the Australian Federal Police, immigration department officials on Christmas Island and Mr Bowen, the Minister for Immigration and Citizenship, as to the status of those asylum seekers who forcibly broke out of detention during the recent week of protests on Christmas Island, can the minister definitively advise how many of those asylum seekers remain at large and roaming the island?
