Government should be referring all Gaza visa cases to ASIO: James Paterson

Shadow Homer Affairs Minister James Paterson says when dealing with a “terrorist controlled warzone” all cases should be referred to ASIO. Mike Burgess has clarified his comments on Hamas supporters being allowed visas to Australia. “We know ASIO can only act when cases are referred to them,” Mr Paterson told Sky News host Sharri Markson. “We know from Mike Burgess’ comments on Insiders that not all cases are being referred to them. “When you’re dealing with a terrorist controlled warzone, you should be referring all cases to ASIO. “That’s not what this government has done.”
