Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. I refer the minister to the statement made by Premier Barnett on 16 September 2010 in relation to the government’s decision to expand the Curtin Immigration Detention Centre:

“Twelve hundred single men in a remote location heading into the extreme weather conditions and high temperatures and humidity of a Kimberley summer is not a very safe situation,” he said.

Does the minister understand the Premier’s concern and accept the truth of the Premier’s statement?
