That's a shame, because I still say the Senate was misled in its answers. Take it however you want. Push it further up the chain. I'm happy to confront any committee in this Senate to put forth my case, and the appropriate minister can defend themselves, because I look forward to it.

Let me bring you to another debacle. I can't believe this myself. It seems like every time we talk about the transport security amendments in this place, something turns to custard. Today we have news breaking that two Asian crew members have snuck off a cargo ship docked at the Geelong port. So before I go any further—and I'm going to go further—can someone please tell me: is the Geelong port an MSIC port or is it one of those ones that falls through the gap and you don't have to have MSICs?
