Mr President, I ask a second supplementary question. I refer to the announcement yesterday by the CFMEU that it is establishing a weekly news bulletin that will be synced direct to CFMEU members via an app on their smartphones. Given the government's renewed interest in censoring the media, does the minister intend to ensure that the CFMEU's new app is not used to communicate CFMEU rorts, extortion, thuggery and intimidation tactics in real time?
