    STATEMENT BY ROMAN QUAEDVLIEG APM CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER AUSTRALIAN CUSTOMS AND BORDER PROTECTION SERVICE Senate Legal and Constitutional Affairs Legislation Committee 20 October 2014 ___________________________________________________________________ Chair, Senators, it is a privilege to appear before you as Chief Executive Officer of the Australian Customs and Border Protection Service for the first time. Since assuming the role of Deputy Chief Executive Office Border Enforcement last year, I have had the opportunity to travel broadly across the Service’s operations and observe the passion and dedication of our officers to the critical tasks they perform in securing Australia’s sovereignty, and contributing to our nation’s prosperity. A major priority for me, working with Secretary Pezzullo, is the integration of border protection services within the Department of Immigration and Border Protection, and the establishment of the Australian Border Force as announced by the Minister for Immigration and Border Protection earlier this year in May. Implementation of counter terrorism measures 1 I would now like to update the Committee on Customs and Border Protection’s activities in the counter-terrorism area and our ongoing reform milestones. The Committee will be aware of the Government’s announcement of $154 million in additional funding to boost our counter-terrorism capacity. The measures will assist us as we seek to identify and stop Australians who seek to travel overseas to participate in terrorist activities, and to assist authorities in managing those seeking to return to Australia from foreign conflicts. Engagement with the Islamic community has been a priority for the Service and for me personally. I have met on a several occasions with Islamic community leaders in Sydney and Melbourne and our Regional Commanders across the country are continuing the process of sharing information and responding to concerns.
