Brandis, Sen George

Senator BRANDIS (Queensland—Attorney-General, Vice-President of the Executive Council and Leader of the Government in the Senate) (14:27): No, and, Senator Dastyari, I refer you to the multicultural statement that the Prime Minister released only on Monday—a very, very fine example and a very, very fine iteration of a number of documents issued by governments of both political persuasions over the years, but, I am very proud to say, the first multicultural statement endorsed by Australia's multicultural community that recognises freedom of speech as a core value of multicultural Australia.
