Senator CASH (Western Australia) (14:39): Mr President, I ask a further supplementary question. Does the minister agree with his senate colleague Senator Cameron when he said that the government's proposed amendments to the Migration Act breach Australia's international obligations and questioned whether the plan would even work? Why has the minister come adrift from his own moral moorings and why is he intent on supporting a policy that exposes innocent people to human rights violations? When will the minister ever live down his shame?
