Senator WATT (Queensland—Minister for Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry and Minister for Emergency Management) (14:56): Thanks, Senator Paterson. Clearly the question you're asking is a question for the ACT, over which the federal government has no responsibility. I don't know why we're using the federal parliament to ask questions about a territory government and its decisions. Senator Paterson, I know it's been a while since you've been able to ask a question in your portfolio, but I would have thought there were other issues that are clearly within the province of the federal government in home affairs that would be something that we clearly have responsibility for. So, it's a little odd that the only question we're receiving in the home affairs area is on something that is the decision of the territory government. The PRESIDENT: Senator Paterson? Senator Paterson: On direct relevance: two agencies in the Home Affairs portfolio—the Australian Border Force and the Australian Federal Police—have publicly commented about their concerns about this development. The PRESIDENT: Minister Watt, please continue. Senator WATT: As I said, this is a decision that's been made by the ACT government. I know Senator Canavan wanted to have a Senate inquiry and a private senator's bill about another decision that was made by the territory government. What we're focusing on are matters that are decisions of the federal government, including, in the Home Affairs portfolio, strengthening our national security. That's what we're focused on, rather than the decisions that territory governments make. Of course the AFP are entitled to their view. But, as I said, our focus, when it comes to the Home Affairs portfolio, is ensuring that our national security is strong, ensuring that we fix up the complete mess around cybersecurity that was left by the former government. They're the issues that we're really focused on in the Home Affairs portfolio. I know Minister O'Neil has also been working closely with Minister Giles, the immigration minister, about the migration review—another issue that was a complete mess when the former government lost office. We've been tackling the backlog of visa applications, which was up to a million when we took office. They're the issues that we've been very focused on in the Home Affairs portfolio. The PRESIDENT: Senator Patterson, a first supplementary?
