The Prime Minister has previously engaged regularly with states and territories about the issue of antisemitism. We know that antisemitism has been on the rise in this country. We know that Jewish Australians have been targeted. I have said in this place many times that people in this country have a right not only to be safe but also to feel safe, and we all have a role, as Mr Dreyfus so eloquently put it in the other place, to work together to stand up against hatred, against antisemitism and for the values that are central to who we are.
