My question is to the Prime Minister. There is no more important task for the government of Australia than keeping Australians safe, and there is no task that Labor takes more seriously than national security. When will the Prime Minister provide a briefing to Labor on the citizenship proposals that have already been discussed at cabinet?

I understand that there has been toing and froing between my office and the Leader of the Opposition's office. My office has agreed that a briefing will be provided to the Leader of the Opposition as soon as the legislation has been introduced into the parliament.
