I thank Senator Cash for her first supplementary question. I thought Senator Gallagher was very clear in what she had said about this situation. Can I repeat: our security agencies have been monitoring and continue to monitor the situation to ensure that they are prepared for any Australian from this cohort to return home. And can I reiterate what said in my earlier answer: the Australian government is not providing assistance to, and will not be repatriating, individuals in Syrian IDP camps.
