My question is to the Attorney-General, Senator Brandis. I refer to the Attorney-General's plan to weaken section 18C of the Racial Discrimination Act because, according to Senator Brandis, 'People do have a right to be bigots, you know.' I also refer to the Prime Minister's decision to withdraw support for the Attorney-General's plan. Now the Prime Minister has flagged criminalising hate speech. What is the Attorney-General's position now?
