The New South Wales premier wants parliament to grant his government “extraordinary powers” to effectively ban protests for three months, claiming the “implications” of pro-Palestine rallies could be seen in the Bondi terror attack that killed 15 people.
Chris Minns on Friday said when a terrorism designation was in place, the police, with the agreement of the minister, “will be able to declare a specific area where the public assemblies are restricted for a period of time”.
