My question is to the Minister for Immigration and Multicultural Affairs, Senator Vanstone. Given the news today that Sweden has had to step in and rescue the Iraqi refugee Mohammed Sagar, whom Australia abandoned on Nauru five years ago, will the government now grant a visa to the other Iraqi refugee, Muhammad Faisal, who was similarly abandoned by Australia on Nauru five years ago and now spends his days in a psychiatric hospital in Brisbane?
