Senator CASH (Western Australia—Assistant Minister for Immigration and Border Protection and Minister Assisting the Prime Minister for Women) (14:06): Fairness is a concept that is foreign to those who supported the policies of the former government. While those on the left claim to have a monopoly on compassion, the policies that they implemented and the tragedies that resulted from those policies would say otherwise. Under the former government at least 14,500 places were denied to people, languishing in refugee camps, from countries such as Kenya, Ethiopia, Jordan, Somalia, South Sudan, the Congo and Uganda. They were denied a place and a new life in Australia because those who supported the former government's policies deliberately ignored their legitimate claims for asylum. The human cost of the policies of the former government is immense. We will not turn our backs on them.
