My question is to the Prime Minister. I refer the Prime Minister to the members of the Woodside Action Group in the gallery today and her decision to house 400 asylum seeker families in their community. I further refer the Prime Minister to her statement during the election campaign that the East Timor processing centre ‘effectively eliminates the onshore processing of unauthorised arrivals’. Can the Prime Minister understand why the Woodside community feels deceived by the difference between her statements before the election and the actions taken afterwards? And, Prime Minister, why will you not meet with this community?
