Conclusion

6.144  The ALRC concludes that the following Commonwealth laws should be further reviewed to determine whether they unjustifiably limit freedom of association:

  • Criminal Code ss 102.8, divs 104–105 (control orders and preventative detention orders), s 119 (declared area offences). These provisions are subject to review by INSLM and the Intelligence Committee as part of their ongoing roles.

  • The character test in s 501 of the Migration Act.
