PM Albanese faced criticism over delayed briefings on a suspected anti-Semitic bomb plot in Sydney.

Opposition Leader Peter Dutton accused Albanese of being kept in the dark for days, following the discovery of a caravan containing explosives. Federal officials were informed on January 19, but Albanese was not briefed until later, raising questions about the communication between state and federal police. In response, the government plans to introduce tougher penalties for terror offenses and hate symbols.
