Abstract | There have been recent calls for the internment of terrorism suspects in Australia. Internment has been practised in times of war in the past in the United States, United Kingdom and Australia. It argues there would be constitutional difficulties if the power to do so was reposed in the executive government, though the chances of the legislation surviving constitutional scrutiny would improve if the power were to be exercised by a court. |
