My question is to the Attorney-General. It relates to reports in the Fairfax media today on Witness K, the former ASIS officer and key witness for East Timor in the dispute over the Timor Sea oil treaty between Australia and East Timor and allegations of spying by Australia on the East Timor cabinet and its negotiating team. Will the Attorney-General give an undertaking that Witness K will be able to travel to The Hague to testify on the matter before the International Court of Justice, provided there are undertakings that the identities of current and former ASIS officers are not disclosed?
