Australia Fast-Tracks Firearms & Hate Group Reforms
Update: 2025-12-23
Description
In response to the Bondi terror attack, Australias federal government is expediting significant reforms on firearms and hate groups. The new measures include a gun buyback scheme, enhanced intelligence sharing, stricter import controls on gun parts, and tougher rules on 3D printed firearms. Additionally, a Hate Crimes Database is being accelerated to provide authorities with better information. The government aims to target organizations spreading hate but not classified as terrorist groups, such as Hizb-ut-Tahrir and neo-Nazis. Drafting instructions for the federal laws will begin tomorrow, with legislation expected to reach parliament before most states finalize their own versions. All jurisdictions are in agreement, driven by public support and a genuine desire to maintain community safety.
