I follow what Mr. Costello said about the timeline for the prioritised cases of people being relocated here. However, some asylum seekers end up in the system for years. Is he saying that is primarily due to the backlog in the old system and that when the new system is up and running fully and the backlog is cleared that will not happen? When does he envisage having the processing time down to the target he would like?
