Wright, Sen Penny

Senator WRIGHT (South Australia) (14:19): Mr President, I ask a further supplementary question. Given that, first, the government decided to abolish the position of the Independent National Security Legislation Monitor, then in July decided to reinstate it, the position remains vacant and unfunded despite extensive changes to national security laws that are coming, the government's commitment to oversight the national security laws seems unreliable. When will the INSLM position be funded, and will the funding be the same or more than it was previously?
