Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. Minister, in recent reports on the removal of West Papuan children from their homes, it was stated that the Indonesian authorities were using Hercules C130 planes to fly these children to Jakarta and elsewhere. Can you advise whether the C130s or any other planes or equipment used in these removals—or in fact the forced removal of any West Papuan people from their country—have been gifted or sold to Indonesia by the Australian government?
