Abstract | This article considers constitutional issues that could arise with laws that purport to criminalise the act of association. Current examples include the consorting provision in the New South Wales Crimes Act, and the amendments to the anti-association legislation in Queensland in October 2013 criminalising the act of association. It considers such laws in light of the implied freedom of political communication, often suggested to include a right to associate. |
