My question is to the Minister representing the Minister for Immigration and Citizenship, Senator Lundy. How many IMAs did the Gillard government originally budget for in the 2012-13 financial year? How many have arrived to date in the 2012-13 financial year? What is the difference between those two numbers? Can the minister confirm that earlier today yet another boatload of IMAs docked quite literally on Croker Island, 229 kilometres off the coast of Darwin and a mere three nautical miles from the mainland?
