QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Senator LAMBIE (Tasmania) (14:35): To stand with Ukraine, oppose the invasion, impose sanctions and allow the import of Russian blood oil—enemy oil—provided another country processes it or DFAT issues a sanctions permit, is beyond belief. By the letter of the law, it's legally okay, but, ethically and morally, it certainly is not. This isn't right and it's a low blow to Ukraine.

Assuming you get regular reports, how many sanction permits have the department issued for Russian blood oil since 2022?
