Draconian: Government introduces new pandemic laws into Parliament

Liberty Victoria president Julia Kretzenbacher said she did not support the bill being rushed through Parliament, and insisted that the new laws must be “carefully” scrutinised by MPs and the public.

“Liberty Victoria is pleased that there will be protection of people’s personal and private data collected for public health reasons. We have always opposed that data being made easily available for policing or other reasons beyond public health,” Ms Kretzenbacher said.
