So there's a lot of unrest amongst the detainees?
Well, Clare, the UNCs' levels of frustration

That's your department.
Not as widely reported, their conditions,
which is KORVO's department.
In fact, the Minister described conditions in Barton
as "just short of 4-star".
Shouldn't these be allocated to case officers?
Not KORVO's remit, I'm afraid.
But there are case officers onsite?
Most of 'em are fly-in fly-out.
Apparently, the lattes in Port Augusta
aren't of a high enough standard to make 'em want to stay over.

They'll be tortured and killed if they are forced to go back.
