Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has outlined a national legislative package targeting hate speech, including a landmark offence which would outlaw the radicalisation of children.
The PM held a national cabinet meeting for the second time in the wake of the Bondi Beach terror attack and zeroed in on a number of sweeping law changes to criminalise spreading hate, division and radicalisation.

The government is swiftly moving forward with new legislative measures, including an aggravated offense specifically designed to combat the radicalization of minors by adults. This initiative underscores a firm commitment to safeguarding young individuals from extremist influences.

Several strategic options have been presented to the cabinet, aiming to enhance the nation’s security framework and ensure timely intervention against potential threats.

  • Limiting the number of guns one person can own
  • Restricting gun licences to Australian citizens
  • Limiting open-ended firearms licensing and the types of guns that are legal, including modifications
  • Accelerating work on standing up the National Firearms Register
  • And allowing extra use of criminal intelligence to underpin firearms licensing that can be used in administrative licensing regimes

In light of the recent tragic events in Bondi, it’s important to remember that support is readily available for those affected. Individuals seeking assistance can reach out to Lifeline Australia by calling 13 11 14 or sending a text to 0477 13 11 14. This service operates around the clock to provide help to anyone in distress.

Additionally, for younger individuals under the age of 25, support is accessible through Kids Helpline at 1800 55 1800. This helpline also offers 24/7 support, ensuring that young people have a dedicated resource for guidance and assistance during challenging times.

For people under 25 years old, you can contact Kids Helpline at 1800 55 1800.

Both of these are available on a 24/7 basis.
