In approximately three weeks, just before Christmas, Abdul Nacer Benbrika is due to be released. Revelations in this chamber last night revealed that the Attorney-General failed to apply to the court for a continuing detention order. It appears the only possible outcomes are that Australia's most notorious terrorist will be released with conditions or that he will simply be released into the Australian community. Why is it that, because of your failures, Australians are less safe now under this Labor government?
