My question is to the Minister representing the Minister for Immigration and Citizenship, Senator Lundy. Before I ask the question, though, I would acknowledge on behalf of the Greens the tragedy that has occurred off our shores and the lives lost, and also acknowledge the efforts of the rescue personnel.

I move to the question: does the minister agree with Amnesty International and the UNHCR in their calls for all countries in the region, including Australia, to redouble their efforts to find a regional solution, to find safe pathways for asylum seekers and to offer better protection to asylum seekers?
