\tAustralia\u2019s government allocated a budget of AUD4.2 million ($3.25 million) to the telecoms authority to implement a new law requiring Google and Facebook to negotiate licensing agreements with local media companies for using their content.<\/p>\n

In a statement, Minister for Communications, Urban Infrastructure, Cities and the Arts Paul Fletcher said the funding, part of the government\u2019s 2021-22 budget, would allow the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) to deliver the \u201ccritical benefits provided by the code\u201d.<\/p>\n

He noted digital platforms fundamentally changed the way that media content is produced, distributed and consumed, which is why the government introduced the code.<\/p>\n

Fletcher said the funds will enable ACMA to fulfill its functions under the code, including managing an eligibility scheme, registering news businesses and maintaining a register of arbitrators.<\/p>\n

He welcomed reports Google and Facebook reached commercial agreements [1] with publishers, suggesting: \u201cThis is powerful evidence the code is already doing its job.\u201d<\/p>\n

The deals with media companies came just weeks after both companies previously threatened to pull back on services in Australia, with Facebook in early February blocking publishers [2] and users from viewing and sharing news on its site.<\/p>\n

The mandatory media bargaining code, approved by parliament [3] in late February, aims to ensure news media businesses are fairly remunerated for the content they generate.<\/p>\n

The new law is seen as a potential blueprint for other countries grappling with the wide market power of the internet giants.<\/p>\n
