Mr ABBOTT (Warringah—Leader of the Opposition) (14:01) My question is to the Acting Prime Minister. I refer him to the guidelines on the treatment of persons rescued at sea published by the International Maritime Organisation that state: The government responsible for the Search and Rescue region in which survivors were recovered is responsible for providing a place of safety … Why, then, is the government giving people smugglers a water taxi service to Australia rather than returning boat people rescued in Indonesia's search and rescue zone to Indonesia?
