My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer to a report released today by the Commonwealth Ombudsman detailing the wrongful immigration detention of nine children, including Australian citizens, between 2002 and 2005. Prime Minister, how can the government claim to be a supporter of family values when Australian detention centres have been used to lock up Australian kids for up to 282 days? Prime Minister, how did your government allow this to happen?
