Senator CASH (Western Australia—Minister for Small and Family Business, Skills and Vocational Education) (14:26): Senator McKim, the problem with your question is that it is fundamentally wrong. You refer to people being 'locked up'. They are not locked up. Again, Senator McKim, it is only because of the policies of the Australian Greens, in concert with the former Labor government, that any person was actually placed into immigration detention. The PRESIDENT: Senator McKim, on a point of order? Senator McKim: President, I'm unsure—this is a point of order, again, on direct relevance. I want to be clear. Is the minister saying that there are no children currently locked up in Australia's onshore immigration detention regime? I'd like her to clarify that, please—currently, as we stand here now. The PRESIDENT: Senator McKim, I've granted some latitude. It's not an opportunity to ask another question, most definitely. Senator McKim, the last part of your question there was fairly open ended—that is, the part that commenced with 'why'. The minister is being directly relevant to this supplementary question. Senator CASH: As I was saying, Senator McKim, you like to use the phrase 'locked up'. It's certainly an emotive phrase. We're on broadcast today, so I suppose that's the reason that you were given the question today, to pander to those who support the Australian Greens. But, Senator McKim, as I was stating, in excess of 8,000 IMA children were detained whilst you supported the policies of the former Labor government. As at 28 November, 45 children were in detention. Of these, one is a non-IMA child; 44 are IMA children, and they are accommodated— (Time expired)
