"interesting" in a bad way...he wants it, his lobbyists want it, he's going to push it through so he can tell us what is appropriate. Conroy, please explain.

It may not need to get through the Senate; yesterday Conroy was
claiming that he can use the classification board to push it through
with no legislation changes necessary.

Of course this would no doubt be legally tested (high court challenge,
anyone?), but may - may - give him an end run around a senate block.

Interesting times.
