Of Parole and Public Emergencies: Why the Victorian Charter Override Provision Should Be Repealed 假释与公共紧急事件:为什么应该废除维多利亚宪章规定

This article examines the override provision under the Victorian Charter. Relevantly, Parliament has used the override on two occasions regarding laws enacted to prevent parole being granted to prisoners except in extremely limited circumstances. Conversely, Parliament responded to the COVID-19 threat without resorting to temporarily suspending the Charter via an override. This article analyses the parole-setting uses of the override within the international context of the temporary suspension of rights, against the Charter mechanisms that allow for restrictions on rights, and against the principles underlying the Charter – the retention of parliamentary sovereignty and the creation of an inter-institutional dialogue about rights. These uses test the transparency of and accountability for rights-limiting decision-making, and the culture of justification the dialogue is supposed to engender. By way of contrast and conclusion, the article highlights the curiosity between the use of the override with parole legislation and the non-use of the override with COVID-19 legislation, and revisits the case to repeal the override.
本条审查了《维多利亚宪章》中的凌驾条款。与此相关的是,议会曾两次对为防止囚犯获得假释而颁布的法律使用否决权,除非在极为有限的情况下。相反,议会对新冠肺炎威胁作出了回应,没有通过越权暂时中止《宪章》。本文分析了在暂时中止权利的国际背景下,针对允许限制权利的《宪章》机制,以及针对《宪章》的基本原则——保留议会主权和建立关于权利的机构间对话——使用否决权的假释规定。这些用途考验了限制权利决策的透明度和问责制,以及对话应该产生的辩护文化。通过对比和总结,文章强调了在假释立法中使用否决权与在新冠肺炎立法中不使用否决权之间的好奇心,并重新审视了废除否决权的案例。

Modern Slavery and Material Justicce: The Case for Remedy and Reparation 现代奴隶制和物质正义:救济和赔偿的案例

In all its different manifestations modern slavery involves the abuse of power and the violation of human rights. In this article, we examine whether Australia is meeting its international obligations to provide access to effective remedies to survivors of modern slavery. We argue that Australia must squarely confront the violations of human rights suffered by survivors of modern slavery by improving access to remedies, including compensation. We recommend establishing a national compensation scheme, providing survivors with greater assistance to apply for reparation orders, and improving access to support and protection. These reforms are necessary to give effect to Australia’s commitment to prevent, address and remedy the human rights abuses and enable survivors to access effective remedies.
现代奴隶制的各种不同表现形式包括滥用权力和侵犯人权。在这篇文章中,我们考察了澳大利亚是否履行了为现代奴隶制幸存者提供有效补救的国际义务。我们认为,澳大利亚必须正视现代奴隶制幸存者所遭受的侵犯人权的行为,改善获得包括赔偿在内的补救措施的机会。我们建议建立一个国家赔偿计划,为幸存者申请赔偿令提供更多援助,并改善获得支持和保护的机会。这些改革对于落实澳大利亚预防、处理和补救侵犯人权行为的承诺以及使幸存者能够获得有效补救是必要的。

From Fact Finding to Truth Telling: An Analysis of the Changing Functions of Commonwealth Royal Commissions 从事实发现到真相陈述:英联邦皇家委员会职能变迁分析

Royal commissions are a tool for the executive government to inquire into matters of public importance. A new type of royal commission has emerged at the federal level as a result of the Royal Commission into Institutional Responses to Child Sexual Abuse – the truth-telling inquiry. Several more royal commissions have been established with an explicit truth-telling function. Recent legislative changes to the Royal Commissions Act 1902 (Cth) allowed for private sessions, cementing a truth-telling function in the legislative framework. The function of a truth-telling royal commission is to aid people who have suffered damage or injury in a process of reconciliation or restorative justice. In this article, I analyse the historical development of the powers and functions of Commonwealth royal commissions in statute and at common law in light of a truth-telling function. If this trend continues, truth-telling royal commissions may develop into an important symbol of reconciliation and justice.
皇家委员会是行政政府调查公众重要事项的工具。联邦层面上出现了一个新型的皇家委员会,这是对儿童性虐待机构反应皇家委员会的结果,即真相调查。另外还成立了几个皇家委员会,具有明确的讲真话职能。最近对《1902年皇家委员会法》(Cth)的立法修改允许举行非公开会议,巩固了立法框架中讲真话的功能。讲真话的皇家委员会的职能是帮助在和解或恢复性司法过程中遭受损害或伤害的人。在这篇文章中,我根据讲真话的职能,分析了英联邦皇家委员会在法规和普通法中的权力和职能的历史发展。如果这种趋势继续下去,讲真话的皇家委员会可能会发展成为和解与正义的重要象征。

Constraining the Uber-Powerful Digital Platforms: A Proposal for a New Form of Regulation of On-Demand Road Transport Work 约束超级强大的数字平台:按需道路运输工作监管新形式的建议

Late in 2020 in California, two giant rideshare operators, Uber and Lyft, spearheaded a USD200 million campaign to overturn state legislation providing employment entitlements to their workers. This article exposes the way these enterprises employ legal drafting to disguise the reality of their relationships with workers; and we consider the rhetorical arguments they use to justify these strategies. We conclude that it is time for Australian regulators to adopt an alternative approach to ensuring basic protections for workers which focusses on the nature of the work being undertaken, rather than on the legal form of the contract between enterprise and worker. We focus on the Australian road transport industry, and particularly on rideshare and food delivery workers, because despite assertions that their labour is part of a shiny new ‘digital economy’, this kind of work has been important in societies since medieval times, or earlier.
2020年末,在加利福尼亚州,优步(Uber)和Lyft这两家大型拼车运营商发起了一场2亿美元的运动,旨在推翻为其员工提供就业权利的州立法。本文揭露了这些企业利用法律起草来掩盖其与工人关系的现实;我们考虑他们用来证明这些策略的修辞论点。我们得出的结论是,澳大利亚监管机构是时候采取另一种方法来确保对工人的基本保护了,这种方法侧重于所从事工作的性质,而不是企业和工人之间合同的法律形式。我们关注澳大利亚道路运输行业,尤其是拼车和送餐工人,因为尽管有人断言他们的劳动力是闪亮的新“数字经济”的一部分,但自中世纪或更早以来,这类工作在社会中一直很重要。

Refugees and Asylum Seekers as Workers: Radical Temporariness and Labour Exploitation in Australia 难民和寻求庇护者作为工人:激进的临时性和澳大利亚的劳动剥削
IF 1.3 Q1 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2022-04-21 DOI: 10.53637/vvzr2705

This article analyses the emerging evidence of labour exploitation of refugees and asylum seekers on temporary visas in Australia. Over the last decade, Australia’s temporary protection regime has been marked by profound uncertainty in relation to visa status, unfettered Ministerial discretion, and the punitive exercise of governmental power. We argue that this framework amounts to abuse of governmental power, confining refugees and asylum seekers who arrived by boat to a situation of radical temporariness in Australia. This results not only in the denial of permanent protection and social inclusion to these refugees and asylum seekers, but also provides conditions for greater abuse of power by employers in the realm of workplaces across Australia. We outline six factors related to temporary immigration status and other punitive, unpredictable and arbitrary elements in this regulatory regime that currently increase the vulnerability of refugees and asylum seekers to labour exploitation.
本文分析了澳大利亚临时签证上的难民和寻求庇护者的劳动剥削的新证据。在过去的十年里,澳大利亚的临时保护制度在签证身份、不受约束的部长自由裁量权和政府权力的惩罚性行使方面有着深刻的不确定性。我们认为,这一框架相当于滥用政府权力,将乘船抵达澳大利亚的难民和寻求庇护者限制在极端临时的情况下。这不仅导致这些难民和寻求庇护者得不到永久保护和社会包容,而且还为澳大利亚各地雇主在工作场所更大程度地滥用权力提供了条件。我们概述了与临时移民身份有关的六个因素以及这一管理制度中其他惩罚性、不可预测和武断的因素,这些因素目前增加了难民和寻求庇护者对劳动剥削的脆弱性。

Judicial Review and the Tax-Assessment Making Process 司法审查与税收评估过程
IF 1.3 Q1 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2022-04-21 DOI: 10.53637/dlcb5923
J. Azzi
Noting the ‘deep concern’ of taxpayers and stakeholders with how the assessment power is sometimes used, this article demonstrates that notwithstanding the statutory process for overturning an assessment in part IVC of the Taxation Administration Act 1953 (Cth) and recent judicial comments constraining the scope of judicial review for jurisdictional error, judicial review is nevertheless available to invalidate a default assessment or one made at any time where the Commissioner merely suspects the taxpayer engaged in fraud or evasion without any probative evidence to this effect. As will appear, in either instance the assessment-making process may be challenged in judicial review proceedings for legal unreasonableness, which markedly differs, and is otherwise excluded, from a part IVC challenge but which fundamentally bears on whether there has been abuse of the assessment-making power and thus whether the ensuing assessment satisfies the statutory description of assessment.
注意到纳税人和利益相关者对有时如何使用评估权的“深切关注”,本文表明,尽管1953年《税务管理法》(Cth)第IVC部分中有推翻评估的法定程序,而且最近的司法评论限制了司法审查管辖错误的范围,然而,如果专员只是怀疑纳税人参与欺诈或逃税,而没有任何证据表明这一点,则可以进行司法审查,以使违约评估无效。显而易见,在任何一种情况下,评估过程都可能在司法审查程序中因法律不合理而受到质疑,这一点明显不同,并在其他方面被排除在外,来自第IVC部分的质疑,但这从根本上取决于是否存在滥用评估权的行为,以及随后的评估是否符合法定评估描述。

Eligibility criteria in voluntary assisted dying legislation determine access to assistance to die. This article undertakes the practical exercise of analysing whether each of the following nine medical conditions can provide an individual with access to voluntary assisted dying: cancer, motor neurone disease, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, chronic kidney disease, Alzheimer’s disease, anorexia, frailty, spinal cord injury and Huntington’s disease. This analysis occurs across five legal frameworks: Victoria, Western Australia, a model Bill in Australia, Oregon and Canada. The article argues that it is critical to evaluate voluntary assisted dying legislation in relation to key medical conditions to determine the law’s boundaries and operation. A key finding is that some frameworks tended to grant the same access to voluntary assisted dying, despite having different eligibility criteria. The article concludes with broader regulatory insights for designing voluntary assisted dying frameworks both for jurisdictions considering reform and those reviewing existing legislation.
自愿协助死亡立法中的资格标准决定了获得协助死亡的机会。本文进行了一项实践练习,分析以下九种疾病中的每一种是否可以为个人提供自愿协助死亡的机会:癌症、运动神经元疾病、慢性阻塞性肺病、慢性肾病、阿尔茨海默病、厌食症、虚弱、脊髓损伤和亨廷顿氏病。这种分析发生在五个法律框架中:维多利亚州、西澳大利亚州、澳大利亚的示范法案、俄勒冈州和加拿大。文章认为,必须评估与关键医疗条件有关的自愿协助死亡立法,以确定法律的界限和运作。一个重要的发现是,尽管有不同的资格标准,一些框架倾向于给予同样的自愿协助死亡的机会。文章最后为考虑改革的司法管辖区和审查现有立法的司法管辖区设计自愿协助死亡框架提供了更广泛的监管见解。

Beyond Unconscionability Exploring the Case for a New Prohibition on Unfair Conduct 超越无意识探索新的不正当行为禁令
IF 1.3 Q1 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2022-04-21 DOI: 10.53637/ibyx4580
Nicholas J. Felstead
Consumer Affairs Australia and New Zealand conducted a wholesale review of the Australian Consumer Law in 2017. Despite calls for the introduction of an ‘unfair conduct’ prohibition, the review found that a change to the current prohibition on ‘unconscionable conduct’ was unnecessary in light of the statutory prohibition evolving from its equitable origins. The recent High Court decision in Australian Securities and Investments Commission v Kobelt (2019) 267 CLR 1 has stifled this development and realigned statutory unconscionability with the restrictive equitable doctrine. In light of curial and extra- curial comments from senior members of the judiciary, regulators and commentators, it is appropriate to reconsider the merits of a prohibition on unfair conduct. This article argues that this reform will better promote community understanding, lead to greater certainty in commerce and fulfil the role of a ‘safety net’ provision in the Australian Consumer Law.
2017年,澳大利亚和新西兰消费者事务部对《澳大利亚消费者法》进行了全面审查。尽管有人呼吁引入“不公平行为”禁令,但审查发现,鉴于法定禁令从公平起源演变而来,没有必要改变目前对“不合理行为”的禁令。高等法院最近在澳大利亚证券和投资委员会诉Kobelt(2019)267 CLR 1案中的裁决扼杀了这一发展,并将法定不合情理与限制性公平原则重新调整。根据司法机构高级成员、监管机构和评论员的法庭和法庭外意见,重新考虑禁止不公平行为的好处是合适的。本文认为,这项改革将更好地促进社区理解,提高商业的确定性,并发挥《澳大利亚消费者法》中“安全网”条款的作用。

Addressing the Impact of Animal Abuse: The Need for Legal Recognition of Abused Pets as Sentient Victims of Domestic Violence in Australia 解决动物虐待的影响:需要法律承认受虐待的宠物是澳大利亚家庭暴力的有知觉的受害者
IF 1.3 Q1 Arts and Humanities Pub Date : 2022-04-21 DOI: 10.53637/wgyr1275

Awareness of the incidence and impact of domestic violence has increased in recent decades, along with community and legal recognition of the interests of animals. However, streams of jurisprudence addressing these issues have only partially influenced one another. While in most Australian jurisdictions, animal cruelty can constitute domestic violence, abused companion animals have not been accorded the legal status of victims. This article proposes introducing laws that recognise such animals as sentient victims of domestic violence. This would enable courts to make orders protecting these animals, which would safeguard their welfare and ensure that people with whom they live who are also experiencing domestic violence can escape without worrying about the fate of their animals. Further, it would convey the seriousness of animal cruelty, and might increase support for and awareness of programs for re-homing abused animals, and training of people involved with animals to identify and report animal abuse.
近几十年来,随着社会和法律对动物利益的认可,人们对家庭暴力的发生率和影响的认识有所提高。然而,解决这些问题的法理学流派只是部分地相互影响。虽然在大多数澳大利亚司法管辖区,虐待动物可以构成家庭暴力,但被虐待的伴侣动物并没有被赋予受害者的法律地位。这篇文章建议引入法律,承认这些动物是家庭暴力的有知觉的受害者。这将使法院能够做出保护这些动物的命令,这将保障它们的福利,并确保与它们生活在一起的人也遭受家庭暴力,可以逃脱而不必担心他们的动物的命运。此外,它将传达虐待动物的严重性,并可能增加对重新安置受虐待动物的计划的支持和意识,并培训与动物有关的人识别和报告虐待动物。

Further, it would convey the seriousness of animal cruelty, and might increase support for and awareness of programs for re-homing abused animals, and training of people involved with animals to identify and report animal abuse.","PeriodicalId":45951,"journal":{"name":"UNIVERSITY OF NEW SOUTH WALES LAW JOURNAL","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.3,"publicationDate":"2022-04-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43974428","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Religious Freedom and Job Security 宗教自由和工作保障

Debate on the need for new anti-discrimination laws to address religious discrimination continues in Australia. Claims for greater protection for freedom of religious expression present particular challenges for employers who bear responsibilities to maintain psychologically safe and healthy workplaces for all their employees. The present ‘general protections’ against discriminatory treatment in the Fair Work Act 2009 (Cth) do not adequately deal with complaints of discrimination, largely because of the ease with which employers can excuse adverse action on the basis of their own workplace policies. However, the proposals in the Religious Discrimination Bill 2019 (Cth) go too far in seeking to address that weakness. We propose that an alternative model for balancing the respective interests in workplace disputes of this kind would be expanding the workplace bullying and unfair dismissal jurisdictions of the Fair Work Commission, to enable these kinds of conflicts to be managed in a proportionate and balanced manner.
在澳大利亚,关于是否需要制定新的反歧视法来解决宗教歧视问题的辩论仍在继续。要求加强对宗教表达自由的保护给雇主带来了特别的挑战,因为雇主有责任为所有雇员维持心理安全和健康的工作场所。目前《2009年公平工作法案》(联邦)中针对歧视性待遇的“一般保护”没有充分处理歧视投诉,主要是因为雇主可以很容易地根据自己的工作场所政策为不利行为辩解。然而,《2019年宗教歧视法案》(Cth)中的建议在寻求解决这一弱点方面走得太远。我们建议在这类工作场所纠纷中平衡各自利益的另一种模式是扩大公平工作委员会的工作场所欺凌和不公平解雇管辖权,以使这类冲突能够以相称和平衡的方式得到管理。
