I did not get to all parts of the senator’s question because I had only got 20 seconds into it. As I was going to go on to say, there is no conflict between this most appropriate response on behalf of the government relating to a live investigation and the government’s commitment to provide better protection for journalists as they carry out their work. Our commitments in that regard will be delivered as with all other election commitments made by this government. I see no conflict between that and not commenting on a current AFP investigation. I am sure Senator Brandis knows that. (Time expired)
