QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Senator DEAN SMITH (Western Australia) (14:05): Minister, 97 per cent of pages in the brief have been redacted at least partially, with nearly half of the pages totally redacted. The Department of Home Affairs incoming government brief, which objectively covers more sensitive information, was released with 76 per cent of pages unredacted. What in this brief is so alarming to the Albanese government that you feel the need to hide it?
