- Title
SECOND-CLASS RIGHTS YET AGAIN? ECONOMIC, SOCIAL AND CULTURAL RIGHTS IN THE REPORT OF THE NATIONAL HUMAN RIGHTS CONSULTATION.
- Authors
Byrnes, Andrew
- Abstract
The Committee learnt that economic, social and cultural rights are important to the Australian community, and the way they are protected and promoted has a big impact on the lives of many. The most basic economic and social rights - the rights to the highest attainable standard of health, to housing and to education - matter most to Australians, and they matter most because they are the rights at greatest risk, especially for vulnerable groups in the community. … The Committee acknowledges that it would be very difficult, if not impossible, to make such rights matters for determination in the courts.
