Constitutional Law & Lawyers
The Australian Constitution is the set of rules by which Australia is run. It took effect on 1 January 1901 and to this day is the blueprint for how Australia is governed. It includes details on the composition of the Australian Parliament, how Parliament works, what powers the Parliament has, how federal and state Parliaments share power and the roles of the Executive Government and the High Court.

Key features of the Constitution
Australia is a federal system in which the Constitution divides power between a national government (the Commonwealth) and state governments.
The Constitution describes the key features of the Australian federal system, including:
• the basic rules for the operation of the federation and the powers of the federal Parliament
• a federal government which governs the nation
• separate state governments, constitutions and laws which govern the individual states
• power and authority that is shared between federal and state parliaments, governments and courts
• a bicameral system with:
• single member representation for the House of Representatives. This system is designed to elect major parties and support efficient government.
• multi-member representation for the Senate. This system elects 12 senators for each state and is designed to protect the interests of the states.
• the High Court of Australia, which is the final court of appeal. The High Court interprets the Australian Constitution and resolves legal disputes between the Australian Parliament or government and the states.
Constitutional law is a branch of law that focuses on the allocation and exercise of government power. Constitutional lawyers are highly trained law professionals that focus on the laws, relationships, and rights that have been established by the Constitution of Australia.
What does a constitutional lawyer do?
Constitutional lawyers interpret and implement the amendments, rights, and rules that the Australian Constitution outlines. They concentrate on specific issues and practice in a wide variety of areas such as civil rights and real estate. They often apply constitutional law to cases that are presented in federal courts and High Court. They gain the necessary information and details to present viable cases. They discuss court cases with their clients and other lawyers, complete legal research, and make sure tasks are completed on time.

The Australian Constitution of 1901 established a federal system of government. Under this system, powers are distributed between a national government (the Commonwealth) and the six States (three Territories - the Australian Capital Territory, the Northern Territory, and Norfolk Island have self-government arrangements). The Constitution defines the boundaries of law-making powers between the Commonwealth and the States/Territories.

The Constitution and the High Court
As a set of rules, a constitution requires interpretation and the adjudication of disputes which arise from those rules. People may wish and are entitled to test the meaning and application of a constitution. In Australia, it is the principal function of the High Court of Australia to interpret the constitution and to decide disputes about its meaning.
Sometimes the High Court is asked to decide whether it is the federal government or a state government which has the authority and responsibility to deal with a matter. At other times, because the Constitution provides specific limits to what the federal government is empowered to do, the High Court may be asked to decide whether a law made by the federal government is valid either in whole or in part.
If you believe you have a matter relating to constitutional law, then please complete your free legal enquiry form on the left, or click here.
How the Constitution can be changed
The Australian Constitution can be changed by referendum according to the rules set out in Section 128 of the Constitution.
A referendum is a national ballot on a question to change a part of the Australian Constitution. In a referendum the Parliament asks each Australian on the electoral roll to vote. Australians aged 18 years or older are eligible to vote on a specified change to the Constitution.
If a majority of people in a majority of states and a majority of people across the nation as a whole vote yes (called a double majority), then the part of the Constitution in question is changed. Otherwise the Constitution remains unchanged.
Since 1906, when the first referendum was held, Australia has had 19 referendums in which 44 separate questions to change the Australian Constitution have been put to the people. Only eight changes have been agreed to, covering such topics as Senate elections, Aboriginals and the retirement of Judges.

It is truly sad when discussion on a relevant matter is shut down, more so, when deliberations have not reached undeniable conclusion.
Selectively quoting snippets from legal practitioners to support a contention does little to validate a legal ruling. Even the section of legislation quoted does not stand up to scrutiny.
The constitutional question asked still remains unrequited. I am left to draw the conclusion that such flawed argument confirms an inability to emphatically answer a question put forward.
Such dismissal of deliberation only serves to feed the growing cynicism of the legal system and its practitioners.

Re: Constitution

Thank you Danieru Sake for providing a response to my question.
According to this very website, there are sections of the Constitution that are to be taken literally. Furthermore, if judges were to consider the intention of our forefathers when drafting the Constitution, I contend that they were very specific regarding the appointment of the Governor-General. Women were not granted the right to even vote or hold office when the Constitution was drafted. Of course, this has changed over time. However, despite this arguable disparity, their words are clear and specific. Are these sections of the Constitution some of those to be taken literally? If so, Constitutional amendment would be required.
Whilst the Acts Interpretation Act 1901 – s23 states “. . . ,unless the contrary intention appears, . . .” it could well be argued to be inapt when referring to the forefathers intention regarding Constitutional references to the GG.
I thank you again for your learned considerations and shall now return to my learner’s manual.

Re: Constitution
Sat, 14 May 2011 03:06:43 -0000
Simon,
In my view, you have raised a number of valid questions which I will help answer. First and foremost, it is important to understand that the procedure of reading the law (ie, an Act such as the Constitution - itself an Act), is not the same as reading the instructions of a learner's manual.
When reading an Act, it is not always advisable (unless deemed absolutely necessary) to read into every letter (ie giving its strict meaning or interpretation) without considering the overall context in which it is written or applied. There are dangers in this, as duly noted by Michael Kirby, a former High Court Justice, who made the following remark -
"...giving meaning to words, [when] read in isolation, can be misleading, artificial and even dangerous".
Instead, one must (as do all Judges and most lawyers) read and interpret the meaning as it was intended when it was written by the forefathers and/or legislatures of this land. And to properly interpret its meaning, regard must be had for the overall 'purpose' of the respective Act. But by no means am I suggesting that in order to understand the meaning of a particular word, or words (as the case may be), in a section of the Act, every other sections must also be read (although it would help). However, and in the words of Justice Dawson in Mills v Meeking (1990) -
"...the purposes...are to be taken into account in construing the provisions.., not only where those provisions on their face offer more than one construction, but also in determining whether more than one construction is open".
I would like to further explain with the help of a very important piece of legislation known as the Acts Interpretation Act 1901.
As a brief introduction, this Act should (or 'must' would be the better word) be referred to when there is evidence of any ambiguity in law (as there appears to be in this case). And because it is an Act, it is also law.
Accordingly, s15AA of the Acts Interpretation Act 1901 holds -
"In the interpretation of a provision of an Act, a construction that would promote the purpose or
object underlying the Act (whether that purpose or object is expressly stated in the Act or not) shall be preferred to a construction that would not promote that purpose or object".
And in s23 provides -
"In any Act, unless the contrary intention appears, words importing a gender include every other
gender".
Thus, with all due respect, it would be absurd to imply that appointing a 'she' as the Governor General would be, or was, unconstitutional. For the above mentioned reasons, I would contend the appointing Quentin Bryce was perfectly legal and constitutional.
I could go on but I trust that I have help answered your question.
Re: Constitution
Fri, 13 May 2011 23:10:13 -0000
By referring to it as 'Hoon laws', I take it as meaning a reference to the Road Traffic Act 1974, particularly division 4 titled 'Impounding and confiscation of vehicles for certain offences'.The view I take in this matter does not support your argument which suggests the creation of such law/s violates the Australian constitution; or, as an alternative, offensive to the unwritten principle of one deemed innocent until proven otherwise. It is neither of the above.
To avoid a lengthy debate as to the validity of such laws, I shall save the effort by simply referring you to section 51(xxxi) of the Constitution which provides -
" The Parliament shall, subject to this Constitution, have power to make laws...with respect to the acquisition of property on just terms from any...person for any purpose in respect of which the Parliament has power [under chapter 1 on the Constitution] to make
laws".
The issue you raised as to the driver having been found 'innocent' is not a question of whether the law is valid but rather, whether the application of the rule was correctly enforce which could only be determine through the judiciary process as it was in this case.

The Current HOON laws appear to violate the australian Constitution of being innocent until proven quillty.. as was the case of the Doctor in perth who had his lamborghini impounded under these hOON laws.. at a later date and after losing his car for 28days the driver of the car was found to be INNOCENT and awarded $18,000 incosts.. so he so he was initally charged and car was impounded and he had to pay fines plus impound fees, So he was QUILTY until proved innocent...
This is soooo not right, please explain how these laws are Valid/legal????
Re: Constitution

These HOON laws appear to contradict this.. so are these HOON laws even Legal?????
Re: Constitution

Thank you again Mr. Farnsworth for responding. My questions are not steeped in conspiracy, an attempt to embattle government, inferring inadequacy of the incumbent GG’s credentials or propriety, or that women are unfitting of appointed to the position of Governor-General. They are, however, based on a point of law – that which is argued daily in courtrooms around Australia. No-one is above the law and all must follow the letter of the law.
There are volumes of legislature that go to extraordinary lengths to clearly define governance and it’s functioning. Such detail attempts to remove ambiguity. It is this ambiguity in the Constitution regarding appointment of the GG that I am seeking clarification on.
As the Attorney-Generals office was established at Federation to advise and consult on constitutional law (among other things) I took my point of clarification to them and am still waiting for reply. Unfortunately, “. . . Constitution and the Letters Patent from the monarch should be sufficient to establish . . .” is not sufficient enough for me and as such will continue pursuit of the Attorney-General’s department for elucidation.
Again, I thank you for your considerations.
Re: Constitution
Fri, 06 May 2011 00:18:18 -0000
You should seek legal advice on this. However, subject to the relevant legislation, you clearly have the right to appeal against decisions made by government departments and government officials. A lawyer can advise you on civil and administrative law and the precedents established over time.
Re: Constitution
Fri, 06 May 2011 00:12:22 -0000
No offence taken... and none intended on my part either. A few words to explain my uncharacteristic irritation:
Sometimes I despair at the conspiracy theories that appear on these pages. I marvel at how some people seem to believe that a century or more of constitutional government is some kind of conspiracy against the people. For example, I delete all manner of nonsense from people who argue that the entire history of the Australian federation is illegal, or that Julia Gillard has no right to be prime minister, etc.
Another problem is dealing with the individual gripes of people who have had some kind of run-in with a government department, local council or whatever. These people often see their problem as a grave breach of their human rights when they simply need to get proper legal advice on how to challenge a decision.
There's also a practical issue that has been concerning me for some time. I am considering removing the comments option and setting up a forum instead so that questions can be more easily categorised and dealt with. As this page shows, there comes a point where it's too hard to follow the lines of debate or to easily find answers to questions that have been asked. I'm open to any suggestion that anyone might have.
As regards your question about the validity of appointing a female governor-general, Section 2 of the Constitution refers to "him" when stating that a governor-general shall be Her Majesty's representative. References to "him" and "he" are taken to be non-gender specific. There is probably a court judgement or legislative provision that formalises this but I've never bothered to look for it. Politically, if not legally, this IS a nonsense discussion. The Constitution and the Letters Patent from the monarch should be sufficient to establish that women as well as men can be appointed to the position of governor-general.
Re: Constitution
Thu, 05 May 2011 23:14:02 -0000
Thank you Mr Farnsworth for taking the time to respond to my question. I do not, however, consider a point of constitutional clarification "simply silly". A valid question usually calls for a valid response - not rebuke. The fact that, as you have stated, there have been 4 kings since 1901, has no relevance to the question as the Constitution covers this (schedule - oath affirmation) ". . . to Her Majesty Queen Victoiria, Her heirs and successors . . .". I am sorry that you seem to have taken such offence at my "nonsense"(question).
Re: Constitution
Wed, 04 May 2011 07:27:17 -0000
This issue has been covered elsewhere on these pages. Sorry, but it's simply silly to suggest that there is something illegal about the appointment of a female Governor-General. The Constitution also refers to the Queen, but we have had 4 kings since 1901. Really, there are more serious things to be concerned about than this nonsense.
Re: Constitution
Tue, 03 May 2011 21:16:42 -0000
An interesting question has arisen since a recent read of the Australian Constitution. All references to the Governor-General are gender specific (him, he, himself) yet Quentin Bryce is the incumbant GG. If we are to follow the Constitution to the letter, the appointment of a female GG could be considered unconstitutional. If not, what is the legal reasoning for allowing so? Does the Constitution require ammending to provide for this? The Attorney-General's department has been asked the same question and I am yet to recieve an unautomated reply or answer..
Can anyone help?
Re: Constitution
Fri, 29 Apr 2011 18:48:54 -0000
If possible could someone assist me? I would like to know if the constitution gives the public a constitutional right to object or complain or have reviewed about desicions that are made by Government departments ie OSR - Office of State Revenue. I do realise that there are the options available to use the court system and the ADT but what I am specifically after is it understand is that if my rights are denied in the first instance without reason then do I have a fundamental right under the constitution.
Thanks

References to "him" and "he" are taken to be non-gender specific. There is probably a court judgement or legislative provision that formalises this but I've never bothered to look for it. Politically, if not legally, this IS a nonsense discussion. The Constitution and the Letters Patent from the monarch should be sufficient to establish that women as well as men can be appointed to the position of governor-general.

Thank you Mr Farnsworth for taking the time to respond to my question. I do not, however, consider a point of constitutional clarification "simply silly". A valid question usually calls for a valid response - not rebuke. The fact that, as you have stated, there have been 4 kings since 1901, has no relevance to the question as the Constitution covers this (schedule - oath affirmation) ". . . to Her Majesty Queen Victoiria, Her heirs and successors . . .". I am sorry that you seem to have taken such offence at my "nonsense"(question).

This issue has been covered elsewhere on these pages. Sorry, but it's simply silly to suggest that there is something illegal about the appointment of a female Governor-General. The Constitution also refers to the Queen, but we have had 4 kings since 1901. Really, there are more serious things to be concerned about than this nonsense.
Re: Constitution
Tue, 03 May 2011 21:16:42 -0000
An interesting question has arisen since a recent read of the Australian Constitution. All references to the Governor-General are gender specific (him, he, himself) yet Quentin Bryce is the incumbant GG. If we are to follow the Constitution to the letter, the appointment of a female GG could be considered unconstitutional. If not, what is the legal reasoning for allowing so? Does the Constitution require ammending to provide for this? The Attorney-General's department has been asked the same question and I am yet to recieve an unautomated reply or answer..
Can anyone help?

If possible could someone assist me? I would like to know if the constitution gives the public a constitutional right to object or complain or have reviewed about desicions that are made by Government departments ie OSR - Office of State Revenue. I do realise that there are the options available to use the court system and the ADT but what I am specifically after is it understand is that if my rights are denied in the first instance without reason then do I have a fundamental right under the constitution.
Thanks
