Australian Federal Police
Chapter 10 Australian Federal Police 10.1 Australian police have been involved in peacekeeping operations since 1964 when officers were sent to Cyprus as part of the United Nations Force (UNFICYP).1 However, police involvement in overseas deployments, including peacekeeping, has increased in the last decade: the Australian Federal Police (AFP) is currently deployed in Cyprus, Solomon Islands, Sudan, Timor-Leste, Nauru, Tonga, Vanuatu, Cambodia and Afghanistan.2 As of January 2008, the total number of AFP officers deployed to international missions was 323. This number rose to 393 with the additional 70 who went to Timor-Leste in February 2008. The majority of deployed AFP officers are serving in peacekeeping operations in Solomon Islands (208) and in Timor-Leste (130).3 10.2 In this chapter, the committee examines the changing nature of peacekeeping operations and its impact on the AFP. It looks at the AFP's preparedness and capacity to meet the growing demands of these operations and its pre-deployment training regime, taking account of any additional skills required for peacekeeping. Changing AFP contribution 10.3 Police carry out the function of maintaining law and order for the community. Their role in peacekeeping operations, while consistent with this broad function, presents particular challenges for AFP personnel. They are expected to deliver a police service and exercise discretion in a country that may have a different political and legal system and where law and order and the judicial system are failing or broken down completely. Increasingly, they are required to operate in multidimensional situations and actively participate in capacity building. -

World Day Against the Death Penalty Comes to Brisbane Sunday, 10
World Day Against the Death Penalty Comes to Brisbane Sunday, 10 October 2010 was the Eighth World Day Against the Death Penalty. The World Coalition against the Death Penalty specifically urged the great users of state sanctioned killing, the United States, Iran and China, to end the death penalty in their jurisdictions.1 The foreign minister of France, Bernard Kouchner, issued a statement encouraging all countries that still inflict capital punishment to abolish the practice and establish an immediate moratorium on executions and death sentences. In September, in Geneva, at a World Congress Against the Death Penalty, UN Under Secretary-General, Sergei Ordzhonikidze, praised the increase in the number of countries that have suspended or abolished the death penalty and called on countries which have not to adopt UN Resolution 62/149 which calls for a moratorium. Mongolia joined the list of abolitionist countries, earlier this year, when President, Elbegdorf Tsakhia, announced that he would commute the sentences of all prisoners currently on death row to 30 years in prison. On Friday, 6 October, over 250 politicians, lawyers, members of the judiciary and members of the public attended a dinner at Rydges South Bank in Brisbane to mark the World Day. The dinner was organised by Australian Lawyers for Human Rights and Australians Against Capital Punishment. Attorney-General of Queensland, Cameron Dick, praised the attendees for their work in support of a cause of the greatest social and moral importance. He remembered abolition of capital punishment in Queensland, way back in 1922, and praised recent steps of the Australian Parliament to legislate into Australian domestic law the provisions of the Second Optional Protocol to the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, thereby, making it impossible for any State or Territory government in Australia to reinstate the death penalty. -

Response to Media Watch
RESPONSE TO MEDIA WATCH 1. Yes, prior to contacting the Rushes, Australian Story was well aware of Scott Rush’s previous convictions in Australia. It was reasonably common knowledge among reporters in Bali and beyond. 2. Our research, along with all advice received at the outset and since, indicated that publication of Scott Rush’s criminal record and/or his drug history could result in the use of that information by the Indonesian courts and expose him to the death penalty. This remains the case until the Appeals process is completed. We refer Media Watch to the comments of Prof Tim Lindsey on Radio National’s Media Report today (confirming the risk of the application of the death penalty as a possible consequence of the Courier Mail publication). 3. The focus of the Australian Story program was on the experience of Scott Rush’s parents when confronted with the arrest of their son for heroin smuggling. Yes, of course Australian Story believed that Scott Rush’s background was relevant. We sought to refer to that background in a responsible and restrained manner that would not place Scott Rush in greater peril of the death sentence. We informed our audience at the outset, in our introduction, that legal and ethical constraints precluded discussion of some issues. 4 a) Yes, Lee and Christine Rush expressed deep concern about publication of previously undisclosed material that could result in the application of the death penalty. b) While we listened to their legitimate and proper concerns (ABC Editorial Guidelines require that participants in programs be treated with respect), even if the family had been ignorant of the legal position and had not expressed concerns, we were independently aware of the hazards of publication and we would have made the same decision. -
Questions on Notice
SENATE LEGAL AND CONSTITUTIONAL LEGISLATION COMMITTEE AUSTRALIAN FEDERAL POLICE Question No. 142 Senator Stott Despoja asked the following question at the hearing on 17 February 2006: Bali Nine a) Can you confirm that in a telephone call to Mr Lee Rush on April 8, 2006 at 1:30am, a member of the Australian Federal Police told Mr Rush that his son, Scott Rush, would be spoken to and asked not to board a flight to Bali? b) Does the AFP have a policy of prioritising the maintenance of operational integrity over acting to prevent the exposure of Australians to prosecution for offences in jurisdictions where the death penalty applies? c) Who made the decision not to intervene to prevent Scott Rush and possibly other members of the Bali 9 from leaving Australia? d) Why was a condition not placed on cooperation with the Indonesian police that no arrests and prosecutions in Indonesia would result in the application of the death penalty to Australian citizens? The answer to the honourable senator’s question is as follows: a) No member of the Australian Federal Police had a conversation with Mr Lee Rush on 8 April 2005. b) The AFP considers the exchange of intelligence with international law enforcement partners to be a core element of taking the fight against illicit drugs off shore. There is no policy in existence that causes the AFP to consider operational integrity a greater priority that the exposure of Australians to prosecution for the death penalty. c) The AFP had no legal authority that would allow a member to prevent Scott Rush from departing Australia. -

This paper will argue that inferences and implications arising from Australian legislation and guidelines impose restrictions on cooperation with foreign nations, where such cooperation could lead to the death of an Australia citizen.
