Senator CARR (Victoria—Minister for Innovation, Industry, Science and Research) (14:47): What I can assure the Senate is that the government accepts the advice of the Australian Navy about how incredibly dangerous such a policy position is. Furthermore, this government acts on the advice of the inquiry that this Senate ran into a certain maritime incident. I further draw the attention of the Senate to the suggestion that somehow or another this government is not concerned about human rights, coming from senators who support the policy of the previous government— Senator Fifield: Which worked! Senator CARR: Did it work? So the Mohamed Haneef affair worked, did it? Perhaps we could get some advice on how the Cornelia Rau affair worked or how the Vivian Alvarez Solon affair worked. Your treatment of human rights was a disgrace. Your attitude to the treatment of people in detention centres was a disgrace. (Time expired) Senator Brandis: I don't think they were boat arrivals. Senator Chris Evans: On a point of order, Mr President: as I said yesterday, I am not opposed to robust debate, but I think Senator Brandis ought to withdraw that remark—and I think he knows he should. The PRESIDENT: Senator Brandis— Senator Brandis: Under your direction, I withdraw.
