Ms Tríona Quill:

When I was with the committee previously, I mentioned it is likely that additional legislation will be needed to implement the work of the Future of Media Commission because its report will be extensive and thorough.

It will take time to put that into legislation. A more likely scenario is there will be an additional Bill to address the many issues the Future of Media Commission will bring forward. While the online safety and media regulation Bill amends the Broadcasting Act, it only deals with some elements of that Act. There are many areas not addressed in the online safety and media regulation Bill that will need to be considered separately. The work of the Future of Media Commission will set the template for that.
