My question is to the Minister representing the Minister for Immigration and Citizenship, Senator Ludwig. I refer the minister to the revelation made by the former Prime Minister and now former foreign minister, Mr Rudd:

… decisions … were taken, in my absence often, and then announced and implemented, often without my knowledge, in the case of various decisions like the Malaysia solution for example, and then off they went only to discover they didn't work.

Will the government now admit that the failure of the cabinet to work together and function properly has resulted in the chaos that is now Australia's border protection policies?
