Communications Minister Mitch Fifield is expected to present proposed cross-media ownership reforms to Cabinet on 22 February 2016, with legislation likely to be tabled in Parliament in mid-March. The reforms are likely to include the abolition of the "reach rule" and the "two-out-of-three" rule, although there may be no changes to the anti-siphoning list for sports broadcasts. The reforms are also likely to include measures to ensure that regional broadcasters continue to provide local content in the event of mergers in the sector.
