Experts highlight the difficulty of implementing age verification, questioning the effectiveness of the measure and suggesting the need for specific technical specifications from legislators.", "The long-term success of the Australian social media ban for under-16s is uncertain, with potential for circumvention and unforeseen consequences. While some see it as necessary protection against harmful online content, others argue that it may be ineffective and could even drive youth to less regulated online spaces."

How have the pro-Palestinian protests in Melbourne impacted local businesses and the city's overall reputation?

How will the Victorian government's investment strategy address the uneven distribution of demand across different regions of the state?

Increased demand stems from the state government's free three and four-year-old kindergarten program. This policy, while beneficial for families, necessitates significant public investment, particularly in Melbourne's growth corridors (Wyndham, Melton-Bacchus Marsh, Whittlesea-Wallan, Casey, and Dandenong), where demand is most acute.

What are the key discrepancies between the CSIRO's cost analysis and the Coalition's proposal for nuclear power plants in Australia?

The CSIRO refutes Coalition claims that nuclear power plants could be operational in Australia within 15 years, asserting that "firmed" solar and wind energy remain the most economical options for new electricity generation. The agency's GenCost report contradicts the Coalition's cost-benefit analysis, finding renewable energy with firming support to be significantly cheaper than nuclear power, even accounting for the lifespan difference and including potential construction delays and cost overruns.
