The bill that has just passed the House and that you will have the opportunity to consider shortly is a bill that, amongst other things, enables the Minister for Home Affairs to cancel or refuse a visa for people who want to come here and spread hate. It's a bill your colleagues voted against, and I would ask you—if your position is that you want government to be able to crack down on those who spread hate—to reconsider your position on this legislation between now and when it comes to this chamber.
