I have a point of order on something Senator Byrne stated. My amendment states, "The Commission shall ensure the status as a trusted flagger is not awarded to an entity which is partisan and seeks the status as a trusted flagger as means of controlling or influencing content." I agree there should be provision in this area but somebody has to oversee who the trusted flaggers are. You have to have a mechanism of checking them.

Let us consider some of the NGOs at this moment in time.
