The head of Indonesia's intelligence service says he has been assured by his Australian counterparts that they will not tap the phones of the country's president again.
Marciano Norman, chief of the Indonesian State Intelligence Agency (BIN), said the body has spoken to Australian intelligence officials about the claims.
"Indonesia's intelligence body has communicated directly with Australian intelligence and in our communication, they stated that now and in the future, the most important thing that it won't happen again," Mr Norman told reporters at Jakarta's presidential palace.
"That's their language, now and in future, they assured that it won't happen again."
Prime Minister Tony Abbott has refused to apologise or explain revelations that Australian spies targeted the mobile phones of President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono, his wife Ani and some of his closest confidants in 2009.
