It is a huge concern for us. We dealt with the module on sexual- and gender-based violence already. Clearly, this cuts into that. I am conscious Senator Higgins wants to come in.

I thank Ms Exton and Ms Neville for sharing those insights with us. As the mother of teen daughters, it is chilling to hear about and to know what is going on at school level. There is a great deal, as Ms Neville said, of incidents of harassment and sharing of images without consent. These are under the surface and not publicly visible. It is a real worry.
