My question is to the Minister for Broadband, Communications and the Digital Economy, Senator Conroy. I refer to the article in the Age on 23 November which revealed that more than one million unsuspecting and vulnerable people will be hassled and targeted by unsolicited marketing calls from May next year because their telephone numbers will automatically drop off the Do Not Call Register. Will the government commit to fixing this dodgy loophole and protect unsuspecting Australian families from unsolicited marketing calls?
