Mr President, I rise on a point of order in relation to relevance. My question actually concerned comments made by Minister Bowen at the time of these riots in relation to the legislation, which specifically provides that the minister is able to deny a visa to particular people under a general character test. I would merely like to know whether the minister has or has not denied visas to any of the perpetrators of the Christmas Island riots under this section of the legislation.
