My question is to the Minister for Immigration, Citizenship and Multicultural Affairs. Among the hardcore criminals released into the Australian community under the Albanese Labor government are brothers Juma and Zackaria Chol. They have been in detention since 2014, where they have been held for fracturing a man's skull with a baseball bat. Their visas were cancelled by the coalition government. The minister has had six months to respond and to draft legislation which would have prevented these individuals being released. Why did the minister fail to act?
