The Department released correspondence with major Australian sports organisations (AFL, Football Australia, Australian Professional Leagues, Netball Australia, and Cricket Australia) regarding anti-siphoning legislation reform between May 2022 and December 2024. The documents show the Department distributed an embargoed consultation paper on 10 October 2022 ahead of Minister Michelle Rowland's public launch the following day. The paper outlined the Albanese Government's election commitment to review the anti-siphoning scheme through a consultative process, inviting stakeholder input via the Department's website. The consultation sought views from sports bodies on proposed reforms to the regulatory framework governing broadcast rights protections for free-to-air television.
