Minister, in the 1980s your party proposed the Australia Card. A Labor Party backbencher at the time, Lewis Kent, said the card was un-Australian and should be more appropriately called the 'Hitler card' or the 'Stalin card'. Many have compared your party's digital ID to the Australia Card. Minister, how will you ensure the centralisation of ID federally will not be misused by any future governments?
