1.2
The committee notes that the statement of compatibility claims that this
bill does not engage human rights as defined in the Human Rights

Senator Ludlam whether the bill could be said to engage the right to freedom of
expression contained in Article 19 of the International Covenant on Civil and
Political Rights.
1.3
