I will ask Ms McPhillips about the investigation that was carried out by the UK. Obviously, the UK would have very sophisticated security and intelligence, through its agency, MI6. It has a greater reach and intelligence capacity. How would the Department do a background check on sizeable numbers of people from the likes of China? Do we have the capacity to do so?
