NB Has Julia lost the plot?
Gillard a 'no-show' on refugee solution
Posted
The Federal Opposition says it is clear Labor is not serious about building a refugee processing centre in East Timor.
Three weeks ago Prime Minister Julia Gillard revealed plans to establish an offshore processing centre in that country.
But East Timorese foreign minister Zacarias da Costa says his country still has not received any concrete proposal from Australia.
Opposition immigration spokesman Scott Morrison says it shows the Government does not intend to act on the plan.
"Julia Gillard has been exposed again as a no-show when it comes to her never, never solution for the offshore processing centre in East Timor," he said.
"There's no proposal that's even on table, it's been several weeks now."
