QUESTIONS WITHOUT NOTICE

Senator WONG (South Australia—Minister for Foreign Affairs and Leader of the Government in the Senate) (14:34): Our intention is to ensure that these guardrails and standards enable this technology and this infrastructure to be rolled out safely. We want to get it right, Senator. And with respect, I did answer your question.

You had a very long introduction, and I responded in detail to that. What I would say to you is that we are very clear about the need to establish these Australian standards. Obviously, that's a very important technical task.

We want to get it right because we understand this technology is something that has to be both managed and utilised safely. The PRESIDENT: Senator Hanson-Young, second supplementary?
