Communications Minister Mitch Fifield has conceded that the Federal Government’s cross-media ownership bill may be delayed until early 2017 after the Australian Labor Party opposed scrapping the "two-out-of three"" rule. Fifield has downplayed Labor’s concerns about the impact on diversity of ownership, arguing that other cross-media rules will be retained. He also notes that media groups such as News Corp and Fairfax support the reforms, and says a further reduction in broadcasting licence fees could be possible.
