New and continuing matters

1.1 This chapter provides an assessment of the human rights compatibility of legislative instruments registered on the Federal Register of Legislation between 25 June 2020 and 27 July 2020.

1.2 The committee has reported on two legislative instruments from this period. The committee has determined not to comment on the remaining instruments from this period on the basis that the instruments do not engage, or only marginally engage, human rights; promote human rights; and/or permissibly limit human rights.^[2]
