'Abul Rizvi said Paterson’s comments about people arriving on tourist visas risking Australia’s national security was “rubbish”.
“The checks these people go through are extensive, so to suggest there is a national security risk here is a complete beat-up. There is no evidence that the government recklessly issued tourist visas, in fact the refusal rate Australia is applying is substantially higher than the rate the Kiwis are applying.
“These people are being checked to an extraordinary degree by three governments,” Rizvi said, citing security checks done by Israel, Egypt and Australia. “That means it’s extremely unlikely a Hamas operative would get through."
Rizvi is a very experienced,fair person who did a good job at immigration unlike the seeking Pezzullo. He knows what he's talking about
