Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. I just point out that there is obviously the matter of 41 asylum seekers who have been returned, and that is not a matter before the High Court. Given the Prime Minister's comments that screening of these asylum seekers on the sea was in line with Australia's international obligations, despite what the United Nations says, when will the government release their legal advice supporting the Prime Minister's comments?
