One Nation's ISIS fighter ban faces constitutional challenges

One Nation will introduce legislation to Parliament aimed at blocking former ISIS fighters and their supporters from returning to Australia, with provisions to strengthen passport cancellation powers and toughen bail laws for terrorism charges. Legal experts question the constitutional validity of the proposed bill, noting it likely violates international law regarding citizens' right to return to their own country and parliamentary limitations on judicial powers. The legislation faces challenges around constitutional separation of powers, as only courts can impose punishment under Australia's constitutional framework, and could potentially impact Australia's international crime cooperation agreements.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
