What I will be looking forward to is Senator Fielding telling me what country in the world mandates ISP-level filtering. I will be very interested if Senator Fielding wants to bring me up to date on that information, because I think he is dead wrong. However, what is important is that this government will continue to take the most effective action that we possibly can to deal with this issue on the net. Because technology changes, we will not rule out looking ultimately at ISP filtering but we are certainly not going to interfere in the commercial arrangements of providers and we will continue to do the very best we can with PC based filters.
