The Prime Minister will not be approving a plea from the Greens to label the world's leading intelligence agency as a terrorist organisation.
Green MP Keith Locke is calling for the CIA to be classified a terrorist group after destroying a car carrying six al Qaeda members in Yemen.
One of them, Al Qaed al-Harithy, was one of Osama bin Laden's key lieutenants.
Mr Locke says if her Government can label Jemaah Islamiah a terrorist organisation, the CIA should also join the list.
