Rowan DeanHOST
9:31
It's a great and a very important topic.
Rowan DeanHOST
9:33
We've got Sarah Henderson.
Rowan DeanHOST
9:34
We will be talking about that.
Rowan DeanHOST
9:35
But I want to stick on something I thought you were going to say, which was the great example...

16 MINS LATER

James MorrowHOST
25:16
Well, so that's near Royal Barrackville that he's got the property, yes.
Rowan DeanHOST
25:20
Well, I want to...
Rowan DeanHOST
25:21
We've got that clip, which we're going to play to Sarah Henderson, but I think we should play it now because it does pick up on this hypocrisy thing.
Rowan DeanHOST
25:28
And that is where Anthony Albanese, he made a big song and dance in Parliament about, oh, lots of jokes, it's 2.50 to join the golf club, I never go there, et cetera, et cetera.
AdamHOST
25:24
This is Labor blasted over extremely dangerous digital duty of care bill.
AdamHOST
25:29
Shadow Communications Minister Sarah Henderson warns Labor's digital duty of care bill is extremely dangerous.
AdamHOST
25:37
It gives the minister unfettered powers to make regulations without parliamentary oversight in relation to categories of harm.
AdamHOST
25:46
or serious harm, she told Paul Murray.
AdamHOST
27:40
Shuts down the rights of Australians.
AdamHOST
27:42
Henderson trashes egregious digital duty of care bill.
AdamHOST
27:47
So the shadow communications minister, Sarah Henderson, says Labor's digital duty of care bill is an attempt to shut down the rights of Australians to have their say.
AdamHOST
27:57
This is an outrageous attempt to shut down the rights of Australians to have their say no matter whether you agree or disagree.
Claire KimballHOST
24:57
Yeah, and as we got to the end of the week, certainly one of the major stories out of parliament was that Angus Taylor, the coalition leader, had said that the coalition won't support that bill in its current form because of concerns around free speech and government control over content.
Claire KimballHOST
25:15
What he says is that it would really enforce a sort of level of political censorship and When he did his press conference on Thursday alongside Matt Canavan and the Coalition's Shadow Communications Minister, Sarah Henderson, they said that the bill was an attempt to protect politicians rather than the public.
Anna PykettHOST
25:35
Yeah, Matt Canavan had some pretty strong words on this.
Anna PykettHOST
25:37
He described it as a virtual iron dome.
speaker_8SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
3:34
Now, those aren't prohibited in the legislation.
April McLennanCORRESPONDENT
3:37
Shadow Communication Minister Sarah Henderson says the government is scrambling to tackle online safety.
speaker_6SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
3:43
So what the minister has said today does not stack up.
speaker_6SOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
3:46
We've seen what power she's giving herself, and we are very concerned that they are a serious threat to free speech.
ReganHOST
64:51
the Shadow Minister for Communication, and that's, uh, Henderson.
ReganHOST
64:54
Sarah Henderson.
KirstyHOST
64:54
Sarah Hend...
KirstyHOST
64:55
She did a great job, um, arguing for the bill that was passed yesterday.
Sally GroverGUEST
23:20
She was doing it.
Sally GroverGUEST
23:21
Sarah Henderson, Leah Black, Michaelia Cash, also Malcolm Roberts in One Nation.
Sally GroverGUEST
23:27
Alex Antic as well, there've been some politicians who have really tried, but for the most part in Australia, politicians have been absolutely useless.
Sally GroverGUEST
23:37
And even if you were somebody who completely disagrees with me on this issue and thinks that men can be women, I still want to know why they thought it was acceptable to leave this legislation, this confusion in legislation, up to a private citizen to spend multiple years fighting.
James HoweHOST
35:29
You're going to need like a second Canberra somewhere just to do this, just to police the internet with these authoritarian jokers.
Joanna HoweHOST
35:38
Now, Albanese is in damage control over this because even within 24 hours of this exposure draft being released, everyone from Big Choccy, St Banford to Us Collide, so big online podcasters, Dave Hughes, but you've also then got Jacinta Price, even Sarah Henderson, obviously Barnaby Joyce and Pauline Hanson, all of them coming up.
James HoweHOST
36:01
Everybody.
Joanna HoweHOST
36:02
Yeah, and opposing it.

10 MINS LATER

Joanna HoweHOST
45:51
So do you remember the hate speech laws in January after Bondi, that Liberals come out and they say, we're not backing the hate speech laws.
Joanna HoweHOST
45:58
But then in the course of 24 hours, John O'Donoghue, who was the Home Affairs Shadow Minister, does these meetings with Labor and amends the bill and the hate speech laws pass.
Joanna HoweHOST
46:07
What the message has to be to Sarah Henderson, the Communications Secretary, shadow minister for the Libs is do not amend this.
Joanna HoweHOST
46:14
You cannot put lipstick on a pig.
Sarah HendersonSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
15:44
an overwhelming right to make any regulation to determine material or conduct that may cause serious harm.
Sarah HendersonSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
15:53
Sarah Henderson is the Shadow Minister for Communications.
Sarah HendersonSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
15:58
Now those powers are so wide-ranging.
Sarah HendersonSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
16:02
The Minister is giving herself the power to shut down almost anything that she considers to be seriously harmful
Jonathon DuniamGUEST
2:57
Well, look, uh, that one, uh, uh, my colleagues, of course, are going through the fine detail of this.
Jonathon DuniamGUEST
3:04
Uh, the problem is, um, these things can't be considered in isolation, and as discussed, uh, by Sarah Henderson, Matt Canavan, and Angus Taylor yesterday, the powers and, uh, the lack of guardrails around the powers the minister has when setting, uh, at their discretion what might constitute serious harm, for example, are where the problems lie for us.
Jonathon DuniamGUEST
3:27
There are too many unknowns around this framework legislation.
Jonathon DuniamGUEST
3:30
Uh, in terms of opt-in, opt-out, well, uh, you know, it is something that is definitely worth considering, but the problem is it isn't a standalone proposition.
Jonathon DuniamGUEST
3:39
Uh, and nor is there, uh, enough when it comes to empowering parents otherwise with other tools available to large organizations now, and Sarah Henderson has been talking about this for a long time.
Jonathon DuniamGUEST
3:49
The capacity for a large organization to manage what is consumed on a device it provides to an employee, for example, why don't we provide that to parents as well? That's the kind of thing we should be looking at.
Jonathon DuniamGUEST
4:00
But, uh, there are a lot of thorns in this legislation, and as stated, the coalition can't support it in its current form, and we'll see whether the government comes back to Sarah Henderson and my colleagues to see if there's a pathway forward.
Sally SaraHOST
4:12
Just on a separate issue, uh, regarding, uh, Andrew Hastie, your, uh, coalition, uh, colleague, and the One Nation, uh, cartoons, which have referred to him, uh, as a traitor.
Paul MurrayHOST
37:41
And, again, all of the justification for the algorithmic stuff is so kids don't see it.
Paul MurrayHOST
37:45
But, hang on, I thought we banned that at the beginning a few months ago, right? So, hang on, what are we worried about the kids for here? My concern is, as Sarah Henderson was talking to Peter a bit earlier tonight, is the power of the minister...
Paul MurrayHOST
38:02
I've got issues with that.
Paul MurrayHOST
38:04
But, Lisa, the truth about this legislation, and this is the cold, hard fact, so the libs are going to start kicking the telly as well here, right? We're going to fix big tech.
