Human Rights and Counter-Terrorism: Submission to Senate Committee on National Security Legislation Reforms
The Australian Government has introduced proposed legislation to amend aspects of the counter terror legal regime. On 30 April 2010, the HRLRC and Amnesty International made a joint submission to the Senate Standing Committee on Legal and Constitutional Affairs' inquiry into the two bills, namely the National Security Legislation Amendment Bill 2010 (the NSL Bill) and the Parliamentary Joint Committee on Law Enforcement Bill 2010 (the PJC Bill).
