My question is to the Minister representing the Minister for Immigration and Citizenship, Senator Lundy. I refer to the fact that yesterday, 18 March, was the first anniversary of when the government lost control of the North West Point Immigration Detention Centre on Christmas Island. Minister Bowen stated at the time that general character considerations would be taken into account to deny visas for the perpetrators of these riots. Can the minister confirm that none of these perpetrators has been denied visas by Minister Bowen under the general character test?
