Abstract: Many Australian anti-discrimination statutes contain special provisions to balance equality with religious freedom. However, if these religious freedom provisions in state anti-discrimination laws are narrowed too much, the laws may become inoperative by virtue of s 109 of the Australian Constitution, which says that an inconsistency between State and Commonwealth law shall be resolved in favour of the latter. This article explores the relationship between religious freedom, s 109 of the Australian Constitution, and anti-discrimination laws. It concludes that, to avoid constitutional difficulty, states should ensure religious freedom provisions in their anti-discrimination statutes are at least as wide in scope and effect as that provided by the Commonwealth in its antidiscrimination statutes.

Abstract: In the New South Wales Supreme Court decision of Anglican Development Fund Diocese of Bathurst v Palmer in December 2015, a single judge of the court held that a large amount of money which had been lent to institutions in the Anglican Diocese of Bathurst, and guaranteed by a letter of comfort issued by the then bishop of the diocese, had to be repaid by the bishop-in-council, including (should it be necessary) levying the necessary funds from the parishes. The lengthy judgment contains a number of interesting comments on the legal personality of church entities and may have long-term implications (and not merely in Australia) for unincorporated, mainstream denominations and their contractual and tortious liability to meet orders for payment of damages. The article discusses the decision and some of those implications.

Abstract: This article explores the emergence of Automated Vehicles (AVs) in Australia. It will investigate the legal and regulatory terrain. International and domestic approaches are examined to determine potential responses. The regulatory issues emerge partly due to the varied nature of artificial intelligence systems and processes that enable AVs to function. The variations may be due to the chosen domain model, software development processes, or the development of biases that may occur during code development for the underlying artificial intelligence system. Such variations can create difficulties in the application of road rules, safety requirements, and the legal and regulatory requirements. They may give rise to significant issues relating to driver classification and licensing for AVs, due to the varied levels of control and involvement in the driving process. For this reason, legislative reform at specific jurisdictional levels is suggested together with clearer international standards as a pathway to ensure the safe and effective integration of autonomous vehicles into society.
