More illiberalism from the Westminster system, this time in South Australia. At least under a Bill of Rights an individual can appeal directly to the Judicial to have their grievances heard. Via Gary Sauer-Thompson:

My understanding is that under the legislation---Serious and Organised Crime Control Act 2008-- the Attorney-General has right to call an organisation, which could be anything from an informal group of people who meet at the local pub for a weekly drink through to a football club or a business, a Declared Organisation. The Attorney-General can use secret and untested evidence in making that declaration, and his decision can't be challenged in the courts.

Secondly, the substantive issue of motorcycle gang criminality, namely, a criminal conspiracy to commit serious offences using violence or otherwise, is not dealt with by the accepted process of adducing evidence at trial. Rather it is dealt with by a quasi judicial process of prohibition of an organisation by declaration and the imposition of control orders on its members. Severe penalties are then visited upon controlled members who continue some form of contact, even remote contact by post, fax, phone or e-mail - two years imprisonment for a first offence, five years for a second or subsequent offence.

The Cronulla Rioting visited similar types of emergency and arbitrary laws on NSW and remain on the books. Executive power in the Westminster system is directly co-mingled with Legislative power. Coupled with a lack of constitutionally entrenched individual or political rights, this allows the executive to over step their bounds and make illiberal laws with ease.
