My question is to the Minister for Immigration, Citizenship and Multicultural Affairs. In Senate estimates last night it was revealed that on 8 August, 14 September and 12 October last year, the general counsel of the Department of Home Affairs met staff in the minister's office to discuss the legal prospects and policy options that led to the release of 149 hardened criminals into the community. It was further revealed the minister did not attend any of these meetings. Why?
