Shadow Communications Minister Sarah Henderson says there is another online safety bill in the Senate which could see the e-Safety Commissioner receive “egregious” powers, including compulsory interrogation. “To make things worse, there’s another online safety bill in the Senate right now where the government is seeking egregious powers for the e-Safety Commissioner, compulsory powers of interrogation,” Ms Henderson told News24 Peta Credlin. “Without any right of self-incrimination, with extraordinarily heavy fines if you don’t comply, including a jail term of up to 12 months.”
