Statewatch endorsed a CSA objection and an OSA safeguards letter. The WeProtect Secretariat supported the CSA initiative with safeguards. DFF separately reports funding Liberty’s TCN challenge.
Solid lines: documented in a cited record. Dashed: reported or inferred. Hollow arrows: proposed powers. Choose a connection for its evidence.
The CSA positions concern different dates/drafts. Statewatch’s 2023 objection predates the 2025 Oak grant. TCN litigation concerns IPA powers, not an OSA/age-ID case. Later governance and procedural records are now accessible in the DFF and court views; no merits or grant-payment result is inferred.
