  • <p class="speaker">Jonathon Duniam</p>
  • <p>I seek leave to make a short statement.</p>
  • <p class="speaker">Sue Lines</p>
  • <p>Leave is granted for one minute.</p>
  • <p class="speaker">Jonathon Duniam</p>
  • <p>This motion asks the PJC to consider hypothetical laws that the government has already made clear it rejects and that will not become part of the legislation passed by this parliament. Unless the government is serious on reversing its position and saying that, in appropriate cases, courts should be able to remove citizenship from those who urge violence and advocate terrorism, this is a waste of an already overloaded committee's time.</p>
  • <p class="speaker">Sue Lines</p>
  • <p>The question is that government business No. 1, standing in the name of Senator Watt and moved by Senator Chisholm, be agreed to.</p>
