Abstract

The aim of this paper is to evaluate briefly the impact of the Human Rights Act (HRA) – sometimes understood as the United Kingdom’s Bill of Rights (Klug 2007) - on the UK laws and society, in the hope of contributing to the present debates on the desirability and the best form of any bills of rights in Australia, both at the federal and state levels.
