I move:

That the amendments be agreed to.

The government amended the bill in the Senate to address concerns of the Joint Select Committee on Cyber-Safety. Key amendments delay certain parts of the bill to provide industry with sufficient time to ensure compliance with preservation requests. Other amendments improve privacy protections by giving specific guidance to officers about the factors and privacy considerations which must be weighed before making authorisations. Privacy protections are also enhanced by changes to the reporting requirements for instances where the AFP use certain international cooperation powers. These amendments were supported unanimously.

Question agreed to.
