Which govt department is introducing it?

Not that it really matters - I haven't seen an ability to competently computer from any federal government department for years now...

From an industry mag…



A bill to be introduced to parliament today - the Copyright Amendment (Online Infringement) Bill 2018 - will attempt to strengthen what the government called its “existing, successful website blocking scheme introduced ... in 2015”.

ROFL
