My question is to the Minister representing the Attorney-General and the Minister for Foreign Affairs.
Well, I will put it to the Minister for Foreign Affairs then. The recent UK court decision in the Rwanda case of AAA v the Secretary of State for the Home Department found the courts should not simply accept assurances from other countries that a person once deported would not face torture or other serious consequences. Minister, have you sought advice concerning this recent ruling and how it impacts Julian Assange's case?
