My question is to the Minister representing the Prime Minister, Senator Wong. Minister, when did the government first learn that a close personal friend, political fundraiser and campaigner on behalf of the home affairs minister, Dr Jamal Rifi, was involved in trying to facilitate the passports and travel of so-called ISIS brides and their children to Australia? And how, specifically, did the government become aware?
