Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. Thank you, Minister, for attempting to answer the question, but the question was how many families have actually benefited from the policy announcement over eight months ago? Hasn’t the minister’s policy of promoting end-user internet filters failed to protect children from dangerous and disturbing internet pornography? Why hasn’t the government done all it can to protect Australian children from exposure to harmful internet content? Does the minister now admit that the government must adopt Labor’s policy and require internet service providers to block access to this repugnant material? Minister, can you confirm how many families have actually accessed your program.
