Senator REYNOLDS (Western Australia—Minister for Defence) (14:50): Thank you, Senator McKim, for that question. As I said to Senator Keneally, you also keep perpetuating a complete falsehood. There is nobody detained on Manus Island. There is no detention centre there. I'd also note, Senator McKim, that you were not detained in Papua New Guinea either in your most recent visit. Senator McKim, the very short answer is that there is nobody in detention in Manus Island. As I said to Senator Keneally, we had a very productive meeting today. Senator Cormann was there. Senator Payne was there. We had very cordial discussions with the Papua New Guinea Prime Minister and ministers on the way forward, including on Manus Island. Again, I've got nothing further to add, because what you said is a complete falsehood. The PRESIDENT: Order! Senator McKim on a point of order? Senator McKim: The minister has just said she has nothing further to add, but a specific question I asked her was whether or not the Australian government has provided a timetable as requested by Mr Marape. I ask you to direct the minister to the question. The PRESIDENT: Senator McKim, you know full well I cannot direct a minister to answer part of a question. You yourself said it was a question amongst the question you asked. The minister is being directly relevant. Senator REYNOLDS: Just to be very clear: I completely reject the whole premise of your question because there is nobody in detention on Manus Island. In fact, you mentioned the six years, and who started those six years? Who was it who actually put people in detention there in the first place? That was those opposite. Labor and the Greens. We have worked tirelessly for six years because, remember, under all of you opposite, 50,000 people came by boat and 1,200 people that we know of died a horrific death. So that was not us. We have worked tirelessly internationally and in cooperation with the PNG government to fix the shameful mess that you left. We are very proud of our record and what we have done in that— Senator Cormann interjecting— Senator REYNOLDS: Minister Cormann reminds me that, in fact, the Prime Minister today, when talking about Manus, was noting how peaceful and beautiful Manus Island is and, in fact, would welcome tourists and others to come and visit Manus and to see for themselves. (Time expired) The PRESIDENT: Senator McKim, a supplementary question?
