Legal and civil rights organisations in the Top End have condemned the Labor government's introduction of new curfew laws. It follows the controversial snap curfew imposed on Mparntwe last month in the wake of unrest. Chief Minister Eva Lawler declared that curfew, which prohibited any minor from being outside past 6pm for a period of three weeks, a success.
Any extension would then require approval from the Police Minister. The Northern Territory Anti-Discrimination Commission declared the bill "an affront to the rule of law". "It promotes arbitrary use of power and has the effect of suspending the Anti-Discrimination Act 1992 ," they said in a release.
