On 13 May 2008 answering a question without notice I stated upon advice that the Australian Bomb Data Centre had provided information to agencies in the United Kingdom following the London bombings.

I have been subsequently informed that this statement was incorrect.

While the Australian Bomb Data Centre did undertake work following the London Bombings, it was for the use and interest of Australian agencies and was not provided to the United Kingdom.
