Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. I thank the minister for her answer and ask the minister, given there is a precedent in place for enforcing Australian laws for offences that are committed overseas—in particular, in relation to child sex tourism and those particular crimes—is there now a very strong argument for extending that to include offences of bribery, and would that be one key component of any corporate code of conduct that could be implemented by the Australian government?
