This article considers how the response to COVID-19 in Australia may be examined and challenged by the Human Rights Act 2004 (ACT), the Charter of Human Rights and Responsibilities 2006 (Vic) and the Human Rights Act 2019 (Qld) (collectively, the Australian HRAs). It also considers the unique model of rights protection provided at the Commonwealth level under the Human Rights (Parliamentary Scrutiny) Act 2011 (Cth) (2011 Act). The authors argue the Australian HRAs and the 2011 Act have the potential to play a key role in scrutinising some laws implementing the COVID-19 measures, and action taken under those laws.

COVID-19 和澳大利亚人权法案

本文考虑了《2004​​ 年人权法案》(ACT)、《2006 年人权和责任宪章》(Vic) 和《2019 年人权法案》(Qld) 如何审查和质疑澳大利亚对 COVID-19 的反应（统称，澳大利亚 HRA）。它还考虑了根据《2011 年人权（议会审查）法》（联邦）（2011 年法）在英联邦层面提供的独特权利保护模式。作者认为，澳大利亚 HRA 和 2011 年法案有可能在审查一些实施 COVID-19 措施的法律以及根据这些法律采取的行动方面发挥关键作用。
