We make no apologies for taking the Australian people's safety seriously, for legislating quickly to preserve that safety, or for undertaking a range of other measures to keep Australian people safe, including the more than $250 million that was announced today to maintain the protections required under this legislation to provide the Border Force and the Australian Federal Police with the resources they need to enforce that legislation. I'm surprised that the Greens Party thinks the Australian community's safety doesn't matter.
