National Leaders Roundtable | 2 September 2025

September 12, 2025

On Tuesday, 2 September, leaders from across the political spectrum came together at Parliament House to drive urgent action and ensure child protection remains at the forefront of Australia’s approach to AI. 

Convened by ICMEC Australia, the National Leaders' Conversation on AI and Child Safety brought together parliamentarians, senior law enforcement leaders, and child safety advocates to focus on three urgent priorities: embedding baseline AI training for police across the country, scoping a law-enforcement only facial recognition tool to assist investigations, and elevating awareness on AI-enabled harms nationally through a focus on prevention.

Following this roundtable, ICMEC Australia commends Kate Chaney MP for raising the issue directly in the House and drawing it to the attention of the Attorney-General. Her leadership highlights the momentum building across Parliament to address the growing risks of AI-enabled child sexual exploitation..

Listen to Kate Chaney speak in Parliament House below. Kate's speech begins at 6.02.00.
