My question is to the Minister representing the Minster for Home Affairs, Senator Watt. Recent reports tell of a Lebanese man who was convicted of inappropriately touching a 15-year-old girl in Australia and has won the right to remain in the country. Lucien Daher visa's was cancelled by the government, but this was overturned last week by the Administrative Review Tribunal. What actions is the minister taking now to ensure Mr Daher's visa is cancelled and that a message is sent to all visa holders that you cannot come here and expect to stay if you commit sexual crimes against children?
