My question is to the Prime Minister. Of the reported 43 tourist visas your government has granted and then cancelled for people from the terrorist controlled Gaza war zone since 7 October, 20 have been reinstated on appeal. Did ministerial intervention occur to support any of these 20 cases?

The member is asking me a question about ministerial intervention. There certainly has not been prime ministerial intervention.
