My question is to the Minister for Broadband, Communications and the Digital Economy, Senator Conroy. Given the increasing number of people—especially young people—who are interacting online as part of their normal daily routine, can the minister indicate what implications this has for government and policy development in terms of ensuring that people can do this safely and with confidence? In particular, could the minister outline what the government is doing as part of its $125.8 million cyber safety plan to address the prevalent issue of cyber bullying in schools for young Australians who interact online?
