Expand Australian Communications and Media Authority's (ACMA’s) responsibilities and strengthen enforcement mechanisms (PER679)
This proposal would expand the Australian Communications and Media Authority’s (ACMA’s) regulatory scope to include all Australian free‐to‐air, subscription and streaming services. The ACMA’s enforcement mechanisms would be strengthened to enable them to take action when rules have been breached, with particular regard to hate speech.
The definition of ‘community safeguards’ would be expanded to include the protection of the public from content that maligns a person or persons based on certain characteristics.
This proposal would have effect from 1 July 2019.
