Written by alex on April 7, 2009 – 2:22 am -The UN Human Rights Committee has now released its report card (or ‘Concluding Observations’) on Australia, the first since 2000 and an important test for the Rudd Government in light of its Security Council bid and its stated commitment to ‘human rights leadership’.
Tonight on Done By Law we talk to Ben Schokman from Human Right Law Resource Centre about the number of serious concerns the Committee has and their concrete recommendations for reform for Australia.
