Dear friends,
You are warmly invited to the third edition launch of the publication series Anti-Terrorism Laws: ASIO, the Police and You.
This series of publications is designed to educate the community on their rights and responsibilities under Australia's counter-terrorism laws. It is presented in four languages: English, Arabic, Bahasa Indonesia, and Urdu. The third edition covers new areas of law introduced since the first edition in 2004, including the association offence, sedition, preventative detention and control orders. This publication is essential reading, and provides a concise, simple, yet thorough coverage of the laws that all Australians should be aware of and understand.
The booklets will be distributed at no cost at the launch, and will also be available from AMCRAN's website (http://amcran.org/) in all four languages after the launch.
This project would not have been possible without the generous funding support of the Law and Justice Foundation of NSW, the UTS Law Faculty and UTS Students Association.
When: Thursday 17 July 2008
Time: 10 am – 12 pm
Where: Lansdowne Room, Bankstown Town Hall, Cnr Chapel & Rickard Rds, Bankstown
