I do not have additional information available to me in relation to this, but I can reiterate the government's commitment to ensuring that the provisions of the Migration Act are adhered to. I think you would understand very well that this government has an excellent record, having strengthened the Migration Act in the past against breaches that had occurred under the former government, which neglected to make sure that the legislation was of an appropriate strength and structure to prevent this kind of abuse. I am confident that the department has taken the appropriate action. I am not sure if you have placed questions of notice through the estimates process in relation to this, but I am certainly happy to provide those details to you, having taken some of the points of your question on notice.
