My question is to the Minister for Veterans' Affairs. I refer the minister to the planned demolition of the Tarin Kot war memorial in Afghanistan, which commemorates the deaths of 114 International Security Assistance Force soldiers, including 40 Australians. What discussions has the government had with fellow ISAF countries about the possibility of permanently relocating this memorial to Australia, and what was the result of those discussions?
