Is the Attorney concerned or would he like to comment on the fact that this appears to have been discovered by a news outlet rather than by the relevant authorities?</text>

MAHER (Minister for Aboriginal Affairs, Attorney-General, Minister for Industrial Relations and Public Sector, Special Minister of State) (15:18):</by>  I think the honourable member would understand that I am not going to comment on a particular case that may well be subject to further investigation, but certainly it is the case that law enforcement come by information in a whole variety of ways, whether they be tip-offs from others or whether others have seen or detected something. I have every confidence that they do what they can to keep up with evolving technologies—as I say, as we saw with the AN0M messaging app—and then enforce the laws as they stand.</text>
