My question is to the Minister for Immigration, Citizenship and Multicultural Affairs. The government brought forward legislation which it said would address the impact of the recent High Court decision. Why did that legislation fail to include a prohibition on paedophiles being released by the government on being allowed to go near a school or childcare centre? Why did that legislation fail to include a prohibition on violent criminals being allowed to have contact with and threaten their victims? Why was this legislation so weak?
