Mr President, I ask a further supplementary question. Given the time delay and given the substantial resources which have been applied to new legal proceedings against David Hicks to seize profits from his book, what are the government's priorities? Is the government more concerned about stopping Mr Hicks profiting from his book or more concerned about curbing his ability to speak out about the role of the former government in his incarceration and plea agreement?
