Attorney-General Mark Dreyfus is providing the first keynote address at the Castan Centre for Human Rights Law's annual conference. Dreyfus' responsibilities include overseeing the arbitrary indefinite detention of 52 refugees designated by ASIO as 'security threats' without right of appeal. He also fully supports as a senior cabinet minister in the federal Rudd government the 'no advantage' regime that the Castan Centre has criticised as 'mutually incompatible' with Australia’s human rights obligations. 8am. BMW Edge, Federation Square. Organised by Refugee Action Collective.
