Abstract
The enactment of the 'Anti-Terrorism Act (No 2) 2005' (Cth), in particular its preventative detention and control order regimes, I can be seen as significantly transforming traditional common law assumptions in Australia about the liberty of the individual- save in circumstances of arrest on reasonable suspicion of the commission of an offence. Representing a shift to principles of pre-emption and interdiction, preventative detention and control order provisions under the legislation have the potential of promoting over time, fundamental and exponential changes to the qualities of the democratic relationship between the citizen and State.
