Let’s hope the Qld Economics and Governance Committee reports as planned on 6 Aug re extending emergency powers given that around 600 public submissions to the bill including from senior Police reps called for limiting and ending the state of emergency.

The Prime Minister's plan needs tweaking and some firm dates. Read my article positing a better and more reasonable way: ialpg.com/2446-2/

@AustLawAlliance Wow... Australia’s so called warnings are laughable and smack of the kind of announcement forced to be made to politically offset the sheer number of complaints made to UN human rights bodies about Australia’s own shortcomings related to returned citizens in the pandemic.

This morning I discussed the international aviation law around the diversion of Ryanair 4978 live on ABC NewsRadio. The interview is here: abc.net.au/radio/newsradi…

New FAA rule will make US pilots' training and aspects of their medical/health history available to future aviation employers. I feel it is an overreach where the database captures motor vehicle, alcohol/drug and other personal disciplinary history at the expense of privacy.

The diversion of Ryanair 4978 to Minsk could be thought of as state sponsored terrorism contravening established aviation law and practice. More to come on ialpg.com
