The Australian Greens oppose schedule 1 in the following terms:

(1)   Schedule 1, items 3 to 6, page 3 (line 14) to page 4 (line 6), TO BE OPPOSED.

(2)   Schedule 1, items 26 and 27, page 9 (line 16) to page 10 (line 7), TO BE OPPOSED.

(3)   Schedule 1, item 32, page 10 (lines 22 to 27), TO BE OPPOSED.

(4)   Schedule 1, items 35 and 36, page 11 (lines 1 to 9), TO BE OPPOSED.

There has been a lot of debate on these issues already. The Greens’ opposition to these items is that we should not be giving ASIS officers access to AUSTRAC. I have been through the arguments already as to why that might be the case.
