SenateMonday 2 March 2026

QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Senator WONG (South Australia—Minister for Foreign Affairs and Leader of the Government in the Senate) (14:37): What individuals do is really a matter for them. I can only speak to actions of the Australian government and Australian officials, and I have responded to questions on this issue on multiple occasions. Australians who apply for passports are entitled to receive those passports unless they are not eligible in the terms I outlined earlier.

The PRESIDENT: Senator Paterson, second supplementary.
