My question is to the Minister for Immigration, Citizenship and Multicultural Affairs. The Courier Mail has just reported that Queensland police have arrested a fifth criminal released by the minister into the Australian community. The individual has reportedly been arrested in connection with an outstanding return to prison warrant after being released by the minister without any checks being carried out. Can the minister confirm that this person should not have been released into the community?
