Crimes and Other Legislation Amendment (Omnibus No. 1) Bill 2026

Senator GREEN (Queensland—Assistant Minister for Tourism, Assistant Minister for Pacific Island Affairs and Assistant Minister for Northern Australia) (10:34): That's not a requirement, for the reasons I gave to you previously. Once the conflict is identified, that decision is made by the Attorney-General to ensure that the person who undertakes those duties is of enough seniority to undertake the powers and particularly the duties required by the director.
