The Minister for Home Affairs inherited ministerial directive 110 from the previous minister. It's a directive that has allowed hundreds of people with substantial criminal history to stay in the country, with at least 10 of those people being convicted of child sex crimes. Now we have the Federal Court overturning the ART's decision. These are people that have failed the character test and must be removed from the country. Will the minister commit to making a more substantial directive to the ART, strengthening migration laws and protecting the Australian people?
