Guys massive favour,

Do u guys mind posting unusual/weird stuff that usually catches ppl off guard in mcq (me in every legal exam for mcq). Like for example specific things about courts or that judicial guideline thing from last yr.

It'll be a massive help and will assist big time in not being thrown by mcqs which specifiy miniscule parts of the course.

Thanks!!

Hi,
I'm really struggling to put together an essay plan and finding LCMs for technology as a contemporary issues in consumer option topic. If people have any to share, it would be very much appreciated. Also, notes for tribunals in consumer would be appreciated as well.

TIA

What are the main domestic measures for dealing with transnational crime?

Jamon compiled a list of LCMIDs for international crime here https://atarnotes.com/forum/index.php?topic=161174.0 , which included the Australian Federal Police Act 1919 (Cth) and the Treaty on Extradition Between Australia and the United States (1974), which you can find more about by clicking on that link :) Australian Crime Commission and Australian Federal Police in General also are domestic measures you could use. Have a look at the 2015 marking guidelines also which list some domestic legislation https://www.boardofstudies.nsw.edu.au/hsc_exams/2015/guides/2015-hsc-mg-legal-studies.pdf

Does anyone have a structure for answering an adoption essay question ? Thanks

I usually do three LONG paragraphs for options so I would probably do

- the adoption process/it’s problems/right of the child and parents
- overseas adoption
- adoption by same sex couples

how do australian tribunals protect human rights?

The Australian human rights committee is probably the most notable Australian tribunal in protecting hr, so I included their aim and mission in the spoiler below straight from humanrights.gov.au
Spoiler
2.5 How does the Australian Human Rights Commission protect and promote human rights?
(a) What is the Commission’s vision and mission?
The Australian Human Rights Commission is Australia’s national human rights institution. We have important responsibilities to promote and protect human rights. This is outlined in our new vision and mission. Click here to see the Commission’s Strategic Plan for 2008-2011.

Our vision:

Human rights: everyone, everywhere, everyday

Our mission:

Leading the promotion and protection of human rights in Australia by:

• making human rights values part of everyday life and language;
• empowering all people to understand and exercise their human rights;
• working with individuals, community, business and government to inspire action;
• keeping government accountable to national and international human rights standards;
• securing an Australian Human Rights Act.
We do this by:

• listening, learning, communicating and educating;
• being open, expert, committed and impartial;
• fostering a collaborative, diverse, flexible, respectful and innovative workplace.
Our strategic goals:

To achieve our vision and mission we will integrate the following five strategic goals into our work:

1. Leadership: We exercise a leadership role in human rights in Australia by being visible, courageous and influential on human rights issues.
2. Empowerment: We support and inspire others to engage in meaningful activity on human rights.
3. Education: We assist all people in Australia to understand and exercise their rights and to respect the rights of others.
4. Monitoring: We hold individuals, organisations and government responsible for their human rights obligations.
5. Innovation: We have a collaborative, innovative and supportive work culture that enhances the quality and impact of our work.
For more information about the Australian Human Rights Commission, click here.

(b) What does the Australian Human Rights Commission do?
The Commission was established in 1986 under the Human Rights and Equal Opportunity Commission Act. Under that legislation, the Commission’s statutory responsibilities include:
• education and public awareness
• discrimination and human rights complaints
• human rights compliance
• policy and legislative development.
We do this through:
• handling complaints of discrimination or breaches of human rights under federal laws
• holding public inquiries into human rights issues of national importance
• developing human rights resources and education materials for schools, the media, workplaces and the community
• providing independent legal advice to assist courts in cases that involve human rights principles
• providing advice and submissions to parliaments and governments to develop laws, policies and programs
• undertaking and coordinating research into human rights and discrimination issues.

I've realised that in the option topics the style of questions have been relatively the same, offerring a broad and a specfic question, especially in family and consumer. However, in 2015, the questions were rather specific such that if I were in that exam I would not be able to write a complete essay. Do you reckon they will continue with the same style of questions into this year as they recently did again last year?

I think they’ll do broad and specific again, but honestly, you never know what could happen so definitely prepare for both. Try find some LCMIDs that cover a whole range of topics so you’re safe!
