    "content": "Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I celebrate and embrace the Bill of Rights. We have enhanced our civil liberties. Are we not doing it to a degree at the expense of our own national security? With that imitation, it does not go far enough. For instance, with the privacy act, how will officers of the National Security Intelligence Services (NSIS) get the necessary information to deter terrorist from causing havoc on this nation if they will not be able to access the necessary information to protect this State? Even in the United States of America, the mother of all democracies, after September 11, laws were enacted to reduce or manage people’s liberties in the interest of the national security. I lived there for seven years of my life. I still travel to USA now and then and I have seen the changes at the airports when you are entering USA. I think at this time of terrorism and in this age of a very fragile world, with neighbours such as Somalia, we should not jeopardise our national security. Those provisions are there, but they do not go far enough."
