NSW Parliament's Power Stripped: Court Ruling on Witness Testimony
Update: 2025-12-23
Description
New South Wales parliament lost its power to force witnesses to testify using arrest warrants. The Court of Appeal ruled that parts of a 1901 law are invalid, as judges cant rubber-stamp warrants for indefinite detention without proper scrutiny. This decision, following a legal fight by James Cullen, chief-of-staff to Premier Chris Minns, could reshape inquiries across the state for years to come.
