Australian drug enforcement committee stalls after 18 months
A joint narcotics enforcement body formed by Federal and State officers to curb drug trafficking in Australia has not met for over 18 months. A Customs Department spokesman said lack of consensus on major lines of action and coordination issues with State authorities caused the delay. The article notes rising interagency cooperation but uneven participation, with reliance on separate trails rather than unified action as seizures of imported drugs continue.

Stamp duty dispute tests value of trust at death date
London courts hear Privy Council challenge over whether New South Wales death duty applies to the value of a trust at settlement or at death. The case traces 1953 settlement by the late Milton Atwill of 200 pounds placed on trust, later growing to 276000 pounds by death in 1968. The NSW Commissioner argued death duty on the trust value at death. trustees argued duty only on initial 200 pounds if the settled property remained. The NSW Supreme Court ruled for the Commissioner, then the High Court of Australia upheld the trustees by a 32‑member majority.
