The Federal Government has confirmed it will restrict the importation of laser pointers after a high-level meeting was held in Canberra to discuss a recent spate of laser attacks on planes.

Home Affairs Minister Bob Debus says the restriction on importing lasers will operate in the same way as the existing controls on guns and weapons, with exemptions for those who have a legitimate use for the items.
