  • Maranoa Mail
    David Littleproud MP View this email in your browser A New Year I hope you had a wonderful Christmas with family and friends and you were able to relax with some New Year cheer! A new year means new beginnings and the parliamentary sittings are set to resume in a few weeks’ time. I’ll continue to work hard and be your voice in Federal Parliament and this Coalition Government has real plans to make our nation stronger and to better support you, your family, business and community. What it means to be Australian In the lead-up to Australia Day this week, I’ve found myself contemplating what it means to be Australian. Australian citizenship should be cherished and entering, or remaining, in Australia is a privilege. 1 We need to strengthen citizenship laws so they better align with Australian values. That’s why I strongly support a tougher citizenship test that would strengthen character requirements for any new potential Australian following concerns that Australia’s short-term visa pathways could be exploited by terrorists seeking access to our country. Immigration Minister Peter Dutton has also flagged other reforms for consideration, including dropping the age at which good character provisions apply for citizenship from 18 to 16 years. If young people are breaking the law, I don’t think they deserve to part of our society. At the end of the day, we have secure borders that are envied by most European countries because of this government’s strong stance on border protection. These reforms are really about making sure Australia remains safe and I strongly support any move by this government to make our citizenship rules more robust a priority when we head back to Canberra next month.
