Mr President, I ask a further supplementary question. Given that the states have occasionally used the Privacy Act to hide behind the changes, when will the government support changes to the Privacy Act to make it clear that the Privacy Act does not prevent government agencies from passing on relevant information to each other in relation to tracking a person's criminal history so that criminals cannot exploit this loophole and hide their real identities and their past crimes?
