"The Albanese government has achieved an historic re-election, substantially
building its majority in the House of Representatives. Much has already been
written about the potential for a more ambitious legislative program on the
back of this result.

That agenda should include substantive human rights reform. The government has
the opportunity in its second term to enhance the protections we all deserve by
legislating a national Human Rights Act."
