I really should read more about this before I comment, and after watching the news just now I may well do that.
It seems, from what was said, that these new laws (and I think I remember that the old/current laws include it too) have a clause(s) in them that allow people to be held for quite a number of days without the authorities having any compulsion to notify anyone that the person is being held.
Imagine if someone you knew disappeared, unexpectedly .. the worry you'd go through, perhaps thinking the worst has happened to them, and then find out later they were being held by the authorities?
I need to do some reading on this, cos sounds more like what has happened in African and other countries rather than Australia :(
