In the short time available, I will take that on notice and table a provision dealing with the regulation in relation to hand guns that we have put into place with the states and territories. It goes down to semiautomatic, length of barrel, magazine capacity and calibre. In relation to this issue, this is something which is ongoing and, in relation to the thefts that are mentioned, I think the report by the AIC—I will check the report—covers the types of firearms which have been stolen. Again, I will provide detail on notice to the Senate.
