My question is to the Minister for Immigration. Has any visa of any of the 1,300 people who are in Australia from the Gaza war zone on tourist visas been cancelled?

A lot of attention has been given to when visas are first issued, where the process is the same as it's always been. But the government continues to collect information—we never stop collecting information on this caseload or anyone who has a visa if at any point in time we're presented with information that has grounds for visa cancellation, where we cancel.
