My question is to the Minister representing the Minister for Immigration and Citizenship, Senator Lundy. I refer to the detention statistics published by the Department of Immigration and Citizenship five years ago on 23 November 2007, the day before Labor was elected, that noted that there were just four people in all forms of detention who had arrived illegally by boat in Australia. How many people who have arrived illegally by boat are today in detention or on a bridging visa?
