QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Senator CHANDLER (Tasmania) (14:00): My question is to the Minister representing the Prime Minister, Senator Wong. We know, through a list of documents released under freedom of information, that the government was preparing to list the IRGC as a terrorist organisation in January 2023. Why has it taken 2½ years for the Albanese government to finally announce that it will list the IRGC as a terrorist organisation?
