I'm sure you'd like to ask one about this, too, Senator Singh. Minister Pyne, when he visited Saudi Arabia to talk about weapons sales recently, met with Saudi prince Mutaib bin Abdullah, who, not long after that meeting, was jailed for corruption. We also know there are serious allegations against Saudi Arabia for giving weapons to Islamic State and committing war crimes in Yemen. How will you make sure that Australian weapons aren't used in atrocities or war crimes or for corrupt purposes? (Time expired)
