Attorney-General George Brandis says he received useful feedback at a meeting with Muslim leaders, who have criticised his tardiness and remain sceptical about proposed changes to anti-terrorism laws.
Mr Brandis was an hour late to his meeting with key Muslim leaders in Sydney's west on Friday. A spokesman said he had been held up in traffic.
The leaders said that after the attorney-general arrived, they had only 30 minutes to review draft amendments to the federal government's anti-terrorism legislation.
