Options for the doctrine of Crown immunity in 21st century Australia

Research output: Contribution to journalArticleResearchpeer-review

Abstract

This paper considers the issue of the so-called immunity of the Crown from statute or general liability. On one view, such immunity as it continues to exist is a historical anomaly in our law, out of touch with general principles such as the rule of law and equality of all before the law. Australian law has reduced the scope of such immunity, but it could be simplified further.
