Mr Stephen Smith - Statement in the House
I draw to members' attention very gravely concerning reports that Aung San Suu Kyi has been taken from her house by Burmese police authorities. I know that all members of the House will share this grave concern. It is Australia's longstanding position, shared by governments of both political persuasions, that she should be released immediately and unconditionally, and I repeat that today and I know all members will support it.
