That's the ultimate dilemma. What I can say is that as I've mentioned, the Federal Court has found that under the current law, so long as removal is possible—ie., while the risk of torture assessment has not been completed, including judicial review of the risk assessments—detention has been set by the Federal Court of appeal not to be indefinite. Not that it's not long—everybody agrees that it's for a long duration—but it's not indefinite while removal is still a possibility. What happens when removal is no longer a possibility?
