My question is to the Minister for Immigration, Citizenship and Multicultural Affairs. On 5 June, the Attorney-General received advice from the Australian Government Solicitor of the prospect that the government would lose the NZYQ case in the High Court. Can the minister inform the House as to when this advice was communicated to him?

I thank the shadow minister for his question. What I can say to the shadow minister and all members of this House is that I took every step to keep the community safe throughout this, including fighting this case all the way to the High Court.
