Australian government boosts police and parole powers

Australian government boosts police and parole powers:

"Without any public discussion or media coverage, the Australian government has pushed through legislation that enhances a range of police and parole powers, strengthening the apparatus established in the “war on terrorism” since 2001. Backed by the Greens, as well as the Liberal National Coalition opposition, the Gillard Labor government secured the passage of several measures that go beyond those imposed by the previous Howard government."
