Mr President, I rise on a point of order: relevance. I allowed a wide-ranging answer in the principal answer and I tolerated the minister neither taking the question on notice nor answering the question. I asked a very specific question in regard to the difference between the treatment of the huge demographic of people who have been declared refugees in Indonesia and the current deal that is being done with the small number of people on the Oceanic Viking. I wonder if you would remind the minister of the question and ask him to return to the matter.
