I'm having trouble finding any primary sources for the change itself. I don't think everyone is talking about the 2023 Closing Loopholes act? https://www.legislation.gov.au/C2023A00120/latest/text https://www.legislation.gov.au/C2023A00120/latest/text
I also came across a proposed 2023 amendment called Right To Disconnect, but the status is recorded as Not Proceeding. https://www.aph.gov.au/Parliamentary_Business/Bills_Legislation/Bills_Search_Results/Result?bId=r6982 https://www.aph.gov.au/Parliamentary_Business/Bills_Legislat...
Either way, my searches aren't finding anything changed this year.
- Namidairo 3y agoIt was split into two bills. https://www.aph.gov.au/Parliamentary_Business/Bills_Legislation/Bills_Search_Results/Result?bId=r7134 https://www.aph.gov.au/Parliamentary_Business/Bills_Legislat... Of note is that the Government will be moving to pass legislation to amend it again this week, after inadvertently leaving in criminal penalties for those in breach of the 'right to disconnect'.
- enasterosophes 3y agoaha, thanks! Now that I know what to look for, I realize I could have found it by switching to the Bills & Legislation tab in the aph search results, which prunes out a few of the false-positives.
- throwup238 3y ago> after inadvertently leaving in criminal penalties for those in breach of the 'right to disconnect'. My only knowledge of Australian government comes from the TV show Utopia but this seems entirely on brand.
- defrost 3y agoUtopia was one of the great political | civil service documentaries of the western world, up there with Yes, Minister and The Thick of It.
- tomjen3 3y agoJesus that’s unbelievable. How do you not just read your legislation and what can we sneak into Australian law without them watching?
