In answer to the Leader of the Opposition’s supplementary question, I would direct him to the statements of the Minister for Immigration and Citizenship in respect of his case-by-case assessment of applicants on Christmas Island where he has indicated that, as is proper under the Migration Act, he will assess this case-by-case and where he has also indicated very clearly that there is a character test and he will be applying that character test. I am very interested indeed to see that we have moved off the carbon price scare campaign. Maybe it is going the same way as the flood levy scare campaign.
