bandaid.friend posted:Phelps introduced a bill to get sick people off Nauru today, maybe they want to see where that goes Thinking about it more, assuming this bill is for the good of people urgently in need, and assuming it could actually pass, I'd hope the crossbench kept abstaining from no confidence motions. The ABC says she'd need the entire crossbench, Labor and one Coalition MP https://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-11-29/kerryn-phelps-crossbench-mps-senators-children-nauru/10566626 Is there any chance it'd get through this week?

I just don't get it - if Labor did vote against their own bill, they'd look like huge arseholes, lose some support and the Coalition'd be able to go on about Labor chaos for weeks Was there some kind of threat to the Government if the bill didn't pass the Lower House?

Ranter posted:Does the encryption bill allow the government to access encrypted communications without a warrant? Sorry if that's not technically the right word for Australia. Does a judge, independent of the government, have to approve it? It's hard to figure out what the details of the bill are? Agencies can request companies to voluntarily help them break into a device. Agencies need a warrant to make a company to help them break into a device, but the Attorney General and Communications Minister can require a company to build a backdoor into their stuff without one. They can't be required to build a systemic weakness into anything, but systemic weakness isn't defined well and the AG gets the call on what is and isn't a weakness
