As the group of businesses that will be tasked to store and provide this data, the
'What' and the 'How' are uniquely in scope for this group to comment on and attempt to
influence - nobody else has the expertise and experience to address these aspects.
The 'who' and 'why' are of course important to debate as well - but there is a broader
cross section of civil society, political groups and others from outside the comms
industry that are questioning those aspects, to help amplify the message.

Haveametaweekend.

The Department is indifferent to who their A-G is.  i.e., the policy remains the same regardless of who we vote for, there is no realistic democratic choice being presented to the electorate.  If there's another election tomorrow, and the Coalition loses, this policy will survive unscathed.
