Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. I refer to the fact that since the last election, the government has funded more than 4,400 new beds in Australia's immigration detention network. Given the Prime Minister's own statement that the Labor Party is a party of truth telling, can the minister please confirm that the government has opened more beds for asylum seekers in our detention network than it has for Australians in our public hospitals?
