Mr President, I ask a supplementary question. The issue is: what are you going to do about it and when? Given that Gina Rinehart already has a stake in the Ten Network and that Fairfax media already owns radio stations, has the government assessed whether Gina Rinehart could be close to breaching current cross-media ownership laws? If she is not yet breaching the cross-media ownership laws, will the government consider tightening those laws in the interim?
