Diplomatic relations between Australia and Papua New Guinea are still in limbo more than six months on from the Julian Moti affair.

Canberra is refusing to co-operate with the PNG Government until an investigation into the Moti escape is made public.

Presenter: Steve Marshall
Speakers: PNG Foreign Minister Paul Tiensten; Board of Inquiry Chairman, Justice Gibbs Salika
