The Albanese Government has put community safety at risk by granting a visa to a convicted murderer who had been rejected four times under the former Coalition Government, before going on to succeed in the High Court this week and strip away key monitoring safeguards for the dangerous NZYQ cohort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Within months of the Albanese Government\u2019s election in 2022, this individual was granted a visa despite repeated refusals under the former Coalition Government.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The contrast is stark – where the Coalition acted to keep a dangerous individual out of Australia, Labor overruled those decisions and gave this murderer a visa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Shadow Minister for Home Affairs and Immigration Senator Jonno Duniam said the case exposed a serious failure of judgment by the Albanese Government.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cLabor is handing out visas to murderers who should never have been granted one in the first place – showing a complete disregard for community safety,\u201d Senator Duniam said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Senator Duniam said this failure sits alongside a pattern of legal incompetence, with the Government losing three major High Court cases – NZYQ (2023), YBFZ (2024) and EGH19 (2026).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThree times Labor claimed its laws were sound. Three times the High Court has disagreed. Each failure has weakened safeguards and left Australians less safe.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Reports confirm the individual went on to reoffend after being granted a visa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThis is exactly what happens when a Government ignores warnings and lowers standards – Australians are put at risk.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHome Affairs Minister Tony Burke needs to explain to Australians what safeguards are now in place and assure communities that they are being protected. Because at the moment, we have heard nothing from the Government about what they will do next.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
