Minister, obviously what you have just been through there relates to the cessation of a special purpose visa, so I take it it would be accurate to suggest that during the process of granting a special purpose visa there is no capacity for the minister to intervene and ensure that that visa is not granted to a foreign head of state or head of government on character grounds?
