Senator McKIM (Tasmania) (14:15): My question is to the Minister representing the Minister for Home Affairs. Minister, I refer you to the ongoing humanitarian calamity your government has created and overseen on Nauru by running a systemic regime of torture and child abuse. Can you confirm that Australia's senior IHMS medical officer on Nauru, Dr Nicole Montana, has been arrested overnight, issued with a deportation notice and has been deported—or very shortly is likely to be—from Nauru? This is after Medecins Sans Frontieres were booted off the island last week and after more than 5,500 doctors have demanded that the children you are torturing on Nauru and their families be brought to Australia for urgent medical treatment. Minister, why was Dr Montana deported and what are you doing about it? The PRESIDENT: Senator O'Sullivan on a point of order. Senator O'Sullivan: I've raised this once before: this assertion, directed at personalities and us collectively, that we're torturing children has just got to be unparliamentary and I believe that the senator ought to withdraw it. The PRESIDENT: On the point of order, Senator McKim? Senator McKim: I was very clear not to accuse any individual senator in this place of engaging in child abuse. What I said, very clearly, is that the government is running a systemic regime of torture and child abuse—and I respectfully put it to you that that is not out of order. The PRESIDENT: On the point of order raised by Senator O'Sullivan, there is no use of unparliamentary language or reflection upon another senator because it was not directed at another senator. However, Senator McKim, I urge you to read standing order 73. I have had discussions with party leaders about standing order 73 and its particular restriction that says questions shall not contain arguments, inferences, imputations, epithets or ironical expressions, among others things. That question, in my view, does not comply with standing order 73. I will, as I have said before, invite the minister to answer the parts of that question which were in order—and there were parts of that question that were in order. But I have warned senators that I will start applying standing order 73.
