Thanks very much, Minister; I look forward to taking you up on that. I'm sure many Australians were as surprised as we were to hear over the weekend that Mr Gilespie had been sentenced to death, given that the public appeared to be unaware of his case. Why is the Australian public only finding out about his plight now? Why have you allowed this to happen? At what levels and at which times did the Australian government raise this with the Chinese authorities?
