My question is to Senator Birmingham representing the Prime Minister. Last week Sky News was banned from YouTube for spreading COVID-19 medical misinformation. Sky is broadcast on subscription and free-to-air television. What is the Morrison government doing to prevent the spread of COVID misinformation on our TV screens, and what's the role of the government's television and media regulator?
