Mr President, I have a supplementary question. I refer the minister to his claims that his media reforms do not propose any changes to existing self-regulatory standards. Will the minister therefore be instructing his hand-picked Public Interest Media Advocate to accredit the existing operation of both the Press Council and the Independent Media Council without any changes to the code contents, standards, processes or membership?
