Show me your intelligence. Assesment task. (1 Viewer)

[idan]

I recently recieved an assesment task for my preliminary legal studies coarse. However, I am unsure of what I must research.

How does Australian law not address the human rights of migrants?

So far the avenues I have started to reasearch include:
1. Feature Articles
2. Commentaries
3. Thesis
4. Legislation

However, I can't find any relevant information.

Could anybody please guide me in the right general direction?

Thanks.

the australian legal system, for a start, does not address human rights. The australian constitution (entrenched bill of rights), not the legislature (legislative bill of rights) have not been encorporated in Australian law. Thus, not entrenched/ legislative power to enforce rights. You coul mention Australia's status regarding human rights, compared to other countries like America, who has an entrenched bill of rights or Congo. (severe human rights abuses. Slavery, rape, genocide, murder etc) i could go on forever. Check out the migrands act 1958. This may need reform (link to continuity and change in the legal themes component- scores marks. let it roll off your tounge. What else do we have?? The tampa incident and the pacific island solution (recent event, very impressive to markers). You could also state that treaties such as:
the united nations declaration of human rights 1948
the international covenant on civil and political rights and the international covenant on economic, social and cultural rights have not been ratified into australian law. These form the international bill of rights but can not be enforced. This is just a start. Keep lookin. Answer the question and good luck.

I hope this was helpful. Trent
