Back to EpisodesNSW Protest Laws Challenged in Top Court
Description
Activist groups in New South Wales are contesting new protest laws in the states top court, arguing that the measures are overly broad and infringe on constitutional rights to political speech. The laws, passed after the Bondi terror attack, allow the police commissioner to declare no-go zones for public gatherings in an area for up to fourteen days following a suspected terror incident. However, critics argue that the rules are too sweeping and do not take into account the varying risks of different protests. The court will decide if these powers stand, with significant implications for future protests.
