Senator ABETZ (Tasmania—Leader of the Opposition in the Senate) (14:03): Didn't the minister himself rule out ever reopening the detention centre on Manus Island, saying it would be a return to the failed strategy of the Pacific solution, which he also said was a cynical, costly and ultimately unsuccessful exercise? Now that the government is seeking to reopen Manus Island and enter a stopgap, one-for-five refugee swap with Malaysia, will the minister concede that he was wrong and that his failed policies have been a costly mistake?
