Rights advocacy connecting named policy models to an official consultation
HRLC July2024 review submission155
The Human Rights Law Centre's submission dated 5 July 2024 is a formal contribution to Australia's Online Safety Act review. It combines a harm-classification framework, endorsement of a systems-based regulatory model and a request for access to platform data for public-interest scrutiny.
The submitted package
The document expressly recommends Reset's April 2024 Five Pillars approach and uses the WEF's 2023 typology in its discussion of harm. Its access proposal covers vetted researchers and civil-society organizations. Publication on the department's website establishes that these arguments entered the consultation record; the later government response addresses review recommendations, so its positions cannot automatically be read as accepting this entire submission.
