On saying that, Minister, I go back to when you said, through your notes there, that nobody had any interest in Captain Salas even though Captain Salas had lost one person overboard; two people had been mysteriously killed on his vessel, one an undercover Japanese detective engaged by the owners; and one person had confessed to him to gun running. I forget the time line; I think it was 2.15 or something like that. All that happened and yet Captain Salas continued to sail into Gladstone and Weipa, and no-one could find him. I don't know if I've missed something, but should there not have been one of these magical emails saying: 'Here I am. Here's the crew. In I come'?
