My question is to the Minister for Communications, Information Technology and the Arts, Senator Coonan. Properly harnessed, the internet is a wonderful tool to educate, to inform, to communicate and to entertain, but it does contain serious risks for children and vulnerable young people. Will the minister outline to the Senate measures that the Howard government has taken to assist parents in making the internet safer for their families? Is the minister aware of alternative policies and their effectiveness in tackling this critical family issue?
