This is the second time we have seen a minister walk into the parliament today and amend their own budget bill: for the passenger movement charge that we are now discussing and, earlier today, for managed investment trusts. The latest amendment comes on top of the fact that this minister, the Minister for Home Affairs, has just announced that they have had two more illegal boat arrivals, carrying over 120 people, at Christmas Island.
