Frydenberg warned Google and Facebook that any "discrimination" against Australian media as a result of the new law would be considered a punishable breach of the code.
He said the aim was "not to protect Australian news media businesses from competition, or from the disruption that's occurring across this sector" but rather "to create a level playing field".
"We want Google and Facebook to continue to provide these services to the Australian community which are so much loved and used by Australians.
"But we want it to be on our terms. We want it to be in accordance with our law. And we want it to be fair."
