Thank you for your response, Attorney-General. Can I ask a clarifying point. To your commentary just then, this bill does introduce broad exemptions for journalism. I'm concerned they will potentially cover unjustifiable infringements like upskirting, which is where a photographer will take a photo of a celebrity with the camera going directly up underneath their clothing, or even phone hacking, which we saw in the not-too-distant past, specifically in the UK. Can you please confirm whether under the current bill these activities would be exempt?
