The proposal would:

• legislate a National Human Rights Act based on the Parliament’s Human Rights Committee model to protect civil, political, environmental, and social rights such as the right to life, education, and a safe environment
• quadruple funding for the Australian Human Rights Commission (AHRC), ensuring it can advocate for human rights across all areas of life
• remove the need for Human Rights Commissioners to seek external funding by fully funding each commissioner equitably, allowing them to focus on their core work without corporate pressures
• ensure national protection for the right to protest by codifying international obligations on free expression and assembly and invalidating inconsistent state laws.

The proposal would be ongoing and start on 1 July 2026.
