Mr President, I ask a further supplementary question. Does the minister not agree that giving Customs the additional patrol boats it needs would be a more effective border protection strategy than giving Customs a different title? Would a larger fleet not be more useful than a longer name? Particularly in view of the $51.5 million cut to Customs announced by the Prime Minister in May, why has Labor gone soft on border protection?
