Privy Council Attacks on Australian Federal State Power
In London on a Saturday session before the Privy Council, Latham and Sir Thomas argued that reparative provisions apply to Australia only if the Commonwealth adopts them. They asserted the Constitution Act limits state power, while section 106 preserves state laws unless altered by the Commonwealth, and section 128 allows Parliament to adopt constitutional provisions. The British Attorney General emphasized the Crown’s interests, as the case weighs whether the British Parliament can bind New South Wales and Wales in shaping their constitutions.
