Well, I would like to invite you, if you would like to, to make a contribution about what you would do if faced with this High Court decision, bearing in mind that these people were in detention under your watch, and no resettlement, removal from Australia, was arranged.

Such conditions can include the restriction of types of employment, requiring regular reporting to authorities and requiring released detainees to report their personal details, including social media profiles, which are being actively monitored. In addition, the government has imposed daily reporting requirements for those with the most serious criminal history. This is in addition to any reporting requirements or orders imposed by state or territory laws. (Time expired)
