  • Australia Andrew Stephenson, Lee Carroll and Jey Nandacumaran Corrs Chambers Westgarth
    GAR KNOW HOW CONSTRUCTION ARBITRATION Australia Andrew Stephenson, Lee Carroll and Jey Nandacumaran Corrs Chambers Westgarth AUGUST 2018 gar insight GAR Know How Construction Arbitration – Australia 2 Legal system 1 Is your jurisdiction primarily a common law, civil law, customary law or theocratic law jurisdiction? Are the laws substantially derived from the laws of another jurisdiction and, if so, which? What instruments have legal force and effect? Who are the lawmaking bodies? How and where are new laws published? Can laws be passed with retrospective effect? Australia is a common law jurisdiction. Australian law is based on the law of the United Kingdom, and until the passing of the Australia Act 1986 (Cth), the UK Parliament could legislate for Australia and the Privy Council was the ultimate court of appeal in the Australian hierarchy. In Australian courts, the judgments of other Commonwealth jurisdictions are regarded as persuasive, but not binding, precedent. The instruments with legal force and effect are laws made by Parliament (Acts) and statutory rules, which operate as subordinate legislation. The principal lawmaking body is the Parliament, which operates at both Commonwealth and state/territory levels. There is also a further level of local government, which is given its function and powers by the relevant state or territory parliament. New laws enacted by Parliament are gazetted in an Australian Government Gazette in the relevant jurisdiction, and are then published in hard copy and online. While Parliament can pass laws with retrospective effect, there is a presumption against legislation having a retrospective effect on the basis that it is unjust.
