Thank you, Minister. Mr President, I ask a further supplementary question. The National League for Democracy won 82 per cent of the seats in the 1990 election for a parliament that was never convened—and I would like to acknowledge the presence of three of those MPs in the gallery this afternoon. An election is planned for 2010, based on a constitution that the foreign minister has rightly called a sham. How is our government pressing the regime for reform of this constitution? Are any relatives of Burmese regime officials currently in Australia; and, if so, why?
