QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Senator FARRELL (South Australia—Minister for Trade and Tourism, Special Minister of State and Deputy Leader of the Government in the Senate) (14:03): I thank Senator Cash for her first supplementary question. I thought Senator Gallagher was very clear in what she had said about this situation. Can I repeat: our security agencies have been monitoring and continue to monitor the situation to ensure that they are prepared for any Australian from this cohort to return home.

And can I reiterate what said in my earlier answer: the Australian government is not providing assistance to, and will not be repatriating, individuals in Syrian IDP camps. The PRESIDENT: Senator Cash, second supplementary?
