About
The Robodebt Royal Commission reported in July 2023. The Report raises a plethora of issues for Government lawyers, including:
• Is advice “just advice” or can the provision of advice constrain Government action?
• When, if ever, should advice be given by reference to legal risk?
• Is it appropriate to circulate draft advice and, if so, when?
• Are there lessons to be learned about the structure of government legal services and the oversight role of the Attorney-General?
Speakers: Justice David Mossop, Professor Gabrielle Appleby, Dominique Hogan-Doran SC
