HTMLConfronting reality: responding to war criminals living in Australia

23 February 2009In this Policy Brief, Fergus Hanson looks at the Australian government's current approach to suspected war criminals living here.

It suggests a number of modest reforms the Rudd government could implement to meet its election commitment that suspected war criminals be brought to justice.
