Mr President, I ask a further supplementary question. In June, the government-funded TB clinics on the Torres Strait islands of Boigu and Sabai were closed in favour of AusAID support to western Papua New Guinea for treatment programs. Has the government conducted any analysis of the threat to public health that the closure of these clinics represents and what it might mean for the likely incidence of drug-resistant TB in Australia?
