Australia’s current legal system has limited scope for human rights. The Constitution provides several express gaurantees; the common law system has protected some fundamental human rights too. However, these “protections” are insufficient. The common law system is shackled to the chains of precedent and are subject to change at Parliament’s discretion. The Constitution has stood the test of time but its formulation prior to Federation has made it a product of its time – entrenching only the values deemed important at its formulation. In response to these limitations, both statutory and Constitutionally-entrenched bill of rights have been put forward. Should we follow the United States of America with a Constitutionally-entrenched Bill of Rights or should we follow Victoria and Canada with the (Victorian) Charter of Rights?
