Rudd denied a newspaper report that the Australian Defence Department had warned him to remain silent about the sinking because of fears that any comments could damage relations with Japan.
He said he could not remember having received such a document, while his defence minister, John Faulkner, said a Defence Department briefing paper on the Centaur had been prepared in 2008 but that its aim was not to gag Rudd.
"That brief wasn't, of course, about silencing the prime minister," Faulkner said. "That is not the case at all. Defence didn't do that and didn't want to do that."
Faulkner said the brief was instead about making contact with Japan over plans to find the hospital ship.
"In particular, there was a hope that there might be some involvement of the Japanese government in terms of assisting with archival research," he said.
In announcing the search for the lost ship last year, Rudd said its sinking "struck deeply at the heart of our nation, and became a symbol of our determination to fight on against a brutal enemy".
The ill-fated Centaur was seen for the first time in 66 years less than two weeks ago when a remote-control camera captured footage of the wreck.
Search director David Mearns said he hoped the photographic proof would "hopefully end the long quest for unanswered questions and bring comfort to many families across Australia and beyond".
Memorial services are expected to be held to honour those who died aboard the ship.
In 2008, Australian searchers found the wreck of the HMAS Sydney II, which was sank off the coast of Western Australia by the disguised German raider ship Kormoran in 1941, killing 645 people.
et cette partie ecrite sur le Japan Times que je recois tous les jours a la maison. Je vous la tape.
" Rudd denied a newspaper report that the Australian Defense Departement had warned him to remain silent about the sinking because of fears that any comments could damage Canberra's relations with Japan, already frayed by Australian protests over Japanes whaling.
The Australian newspaper quoted a senior Defense Department official as saying in its report, " We want to avoid a public debate over whether the sinking of Australian hospital ship Centaur was legal. A public debate about the legality of Japan's actions could damage our improving bilateral defense relations with Japan. "
Defense Minister John Faulkner said a Defense Department briefing paper on the Centaur had been prepared in 2008 but its aim was not to gag Rudd.
" That brief wasn't, of course, about silencing the prime minister," Faulkner said. " That is not the case at all," he said, adding it was about making contact with Japan over plans to find the ship.
Une petite question si vous me le permettez.
