I am coming to the question, Mr President. Nor does he include providing 24 new portable accommodation units to the refugee processing outpost, in order to house the extra people that people-smugglers are bringing in, at a cost of $1.5 million to the Australian taxpayer. Can the minister advise why he has not included these amongst his list of so-called policies that are deterring people-smugglers?
