My question is for the Minister representing the Attorney-General, Senator Watt. On 25 May, legal practitioners on the north-west coast of Tasmania were advised the Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia could no longer operate out of Burnie because there are no suitable premises available. It has since been revealed that the court has not had a permanent home in Burnie since 2021, when it was squeezed out of the Burnie Magistrates Court. Since coming in to government, why hasn't Labor found a permanent home for the Federal Circuit and Family Court in Burnie?
