Senator CASH (Western Australia—Assistant Minister for Immigration and Border Protection and Minister Assisting the Prime Minister for Women) (14:09): As I have already stated, this government does not run a shipping news service for people smugglers, unlike the former government. We promised to run a military-led operation to stop the boats, and stopping the boats is exactly what this government has done in just the few weeks it has been in office. Opposition senators interjecting— The PRESIDENT: Senators wishing to debate the issue can do so after 3 o'clock. Senator CASH: Before the election, the coalition made clear to the Australian public the policy that they would be voting on, and we said that clear communication protocols would be set by those running Operation Sovereign Borders. It is this government that is running Operation Sovereign Borders. We are setting the communication protocols and consistent with those protocols a further update will be provided tomorrow. Senator Wong: Mr President, I rise on a point of order on relevance. The minister was asked about 19 Somali asylum seekers who had arrived in Australia. She was asked a specific question about whether or not they had been transferred. She has not even come close to answering the question. The PRESIDENT: As I have said in the past, I cannot instruct a minister how to give an answer or what to answer. Senator CASH: This government will not be assisting people smugglers like the former government did. We all know how that ended.
