Mr BRENDAN O'CONNOR (Gorton—Minister for Immigration and Citizenship) (14:31): I thank the honourable member for his question. I first refer him to the statement I made just before question time in relation to those matters. As I made clear in parliament last night, I received information for the very first time with respect to this matter on 17 April. That brief went to the transfer of the person in question from one centre to the other. Of course, that was the appropriate thing to do. What I said throughout the course of the questions put to me in relation to this matter— The SPEAKER: The minister will resume his seat. The Manager of Opposition Business on a point of order. Mr Pyne: Madam Speaker, the question did not seek a chronology; it asked why he was not informed for seven months after his predecessor— The SPEAKER: The Manager of Opposition Business will resume his seat. The minister has the call. Mr BRENDAN O'CONNOR: What I have said in relation to this matter when being asked questions is that at all times our agencies have worked together—that is, ASIO, the Australian Federal Police and the Department of Immigration and Citizenship. As a result, this person has been in detention at all times.
