Mr PERRETT (Moreton) (15:02): Mr Speaker, I wish to make a personal explanation.
The SPEAKER: Does the honourable member claim to have been misrepresented?
Mr PERRETT: Yes.
The SPEAKER: Please proceed.
Mr PERRETT: Yesterday I was contacted by a member of the public who was concerned that I had misled the parliament when addressing a motion in the chamber on commemorating the Srebrenica massacre. I stated that 200,000 Bosnian Muslims had been murdered during the Yugoslav conflict between 1991 and 1995. I based this figure on International Committee of the Red Cross casualty data and earlier reports to the UN. However, I acknowledge that more recent research currently puts the total of confirmed casualties at around 110,000 people, as some bodies were buried and then dug up and reburied. I acknowledge that the total number of casualties is still in dispute but, whatever the statistics, nothing can change the horror and loss of this tragic war.
