The CHAIRMAN

(1) Schedule 1, page 7 (after line 27), after item 17, insert:
17A After section 102.1 of the Criminal Code
102.1AA Proscription
(1) The Minister must, when considering whether an organisation should be listed as a terrorist organisation in accordance with this Act, consider the effect of any such proscription upon the following rights of individuals who are, have been, or may become, ordinary or other members of the organisation:
(a) freedom of opinion, conscience, belief and/or religion;
(b) freedom to manifest or practice their opinion, conscience, belief and/or religion;
(c) freedom of expression;
(d) freedom to associate with others.
(2) The Minister must include with any regulation that proscribes an organisation as a terrorist organisation, a Human Rights Impact Statement that includes:
(a) the extent to which the human rights listed in subsection (1) are likely to be limited and the classes of individuals or groups likely to be affected by the proscription; and
(b) the purpose or purposes of any proposed limitation on the human rights listed in subsection (1); and
(c) a statement of why any proposed limitation on the human rights listed in subsection (1) is, in the Minister’s opinion, necessary—the statement should include what alternative measures were considered and why such measures were rejected by the Minister; and
(d) a summary of any information, evidence and other material upon which the Minister relied in forming the opinion that the proposed limitation is necessary; and
(e) a summary of the Minister’s reasoning as to why the form of the proposed limitation is appropriate, the least intrusive and best adapted to achieve the purpose of the proposed limitation.
(3) No regulation made by the Governor-General in relation to proscription under this section can take effect until the Parliament has considered and approved, by a process to be established by the Parliament, the Human Rights Impact Statement attached to the regulation that would proscribe an organisation as a terrorist organisation.
(4) Schedule 4, item 24, page 20 (after line 28), after subsection 104.4(2), insert:
(2A) When determining what is reasonably necessary, and reasonably appropriate and adapted, any person, police officer, issuing court or issuing authority exercising powers under this section must, when making, reviewing, confirming, implementing or otherwise acting consistent with powers in this section, have regard to the human rights standards contained in the scheduled international instruments. In particular, the person, police officer, issuing court or issuing authority must consider, and may require evidence to be provided as to:
(a) the extent to which the human rights contained in the scheduled international instruments are likely to be limited and what classes of individuals or groups, if any, are likely to be affected; and
(b) the purpose or purposes for which any limitation is proposed to be made; and
(c) whether such a limitation of the human rights contained in the scheduled international instruments is necessary to achieve the purpose or purposes, including what alternative measures were considered and whether they were properly rejected; and
(d) whether the form of the limitation of human rights proposed to be made has the least severe impact on the human rights contained in the scheduled international instruments of affected classes of individuals or groups.
(2B) For the purposes of this section, scheduled international instrument means the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, the Convention Against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment, and the Convention on the Rights of the Child.
Note: The text of the treaties listed in subsection (2B) are set out in the Australian Treaty Series.
