My question is to the Minister representing the Prime Minister, Senator Wong. Last week, the Albanese Labor government announced a world-leading step to protect young people from harm on social media platforms and give adults more choice online. How does a digital duty of care make the internet a safer place for our children? And why are basic online safety standards so important to implement?
