Senator CHISHOLM (Queensland—Assistant Minister for Regional Development, Assistant Minister for Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry, Assistant Minister for Resources and Deputy Manager of Government Business in the Senate) (18:38): As I said, we think this gets the balance right in ensuring that fewer ads will be available. The frequency cap works alongside other restrictions, like the sport restrictions, the ban on children programming and the ban on radio advertising during school drop-off and pick-up times.
If you look at the range of measures that we've done, there has been a focus on ensuring there will be fewer ads coming into contact with young people.
