Telecommunications Legislation Amendment (Triple Zero Custodian and Emergency Calling Powers) Bill 2025

Ms WELLS (Lilley—Minister for Sport and Minister for Communications) (11:43): Unfortunately, the shadow communications minister has made a choice, and these are the consequences of this choice. There have been discussions in good faith about these amendments. Those were being worked through.

However, the choice of the opposition to move those amendments forward to an earlier time means that those discussions can't be finalised before this point where you're putting the question, so we oppose them. The DEPUTY SPEAKER ( Mr Young ): The question is that the amendments be agreed to.
