 | | The reservations made by the Australian government in respect to ICERD, ICCPR, ICESCR are in place to permit the States to operate racially biased and discriminatory laws. | | | The abolition of ATSIC and the appointment of NIC is an insult. | | | Instead, Justice Kirby warns that a Federal government, under this constitution has the power to pass laws that could be deemed to be detrimental to any race. |

| | The government's Australian Greenhouse Office Internet site states that "The Renewable Energy (Electricity) Act 2000 requires the generation of 9,500 gigawatt hours of extra renewable electricity per year by 2010" and seems to equate that to a 2% increase in the generation of electricity by renewable methods. | | | It should be remembered that this follows closely on the push against abortion by some senior Federal Government Ministers; abortion being another pet hate of the US bible bashers. | | | Commonwealth Government's overriding of Northern Territory's Euthanasia law |

| | The ACT Government has acknowledged the effects of past separation policies and practices on Indigenous people and has stated that, from the establishment of the ACT in 1911 until self-government in 1989, the Commonwealth Government was responsible for the laws and administration of the Territory. | | | However, ATSIC records its disappointment with the limited scope of the Commonwealth’s response (and those of the State, Territory and Local Governments) to the recommendations of the Report. | | | In her report Review of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Heritage Protection Act 1984 (August 1996), Justice Evatt made a number of recommendations which would improve the processes established by the Act and strengthen the protection of Indigenous heritage by Commonwealth, state and territory governments. |
