Regulation Aims to Shield High Court Rulings on Coal Boards
The Commonwealth plans a National Security Regulation to validate decisions of central and local Coal Reference Boards disallowed by a High Court judgment. Labor Minister Hol Jowsty said the regulation would give board decisions the force of law under the National Security Act and shield them from civil court challenge. Ministers met miners’ leaders and officials to discuss reforms, with warnings of potential jungle conditions if no understanding is reached, and a review of conciliation and arbitration systems to prevent future court scrutiny.
