Today's Video Focus: Farmers are calling for the animal rights group Aussie Farms to be
stripped of its charity status and have its Facebook page taken down.
The group launched an online map showing the location and contact
details for hundreds of farms across the country, linking them to animal
cruelty.
Aussie Farms says the initiative is about increasing transparency but
Agriculture Minister David Littleproud is warning the site "could be
creating an attack map for activists".
Focus of the Say Article:
On 3 and 4 December 2018, the first International Forum on Online Courts
was held in London. There were 300 delegates from about 30 different
countries. It undertook an international review of what is happening in
many countries around the world. It looked at technological issues,
matters of access to justice, practicalities for lawyers and the
judiciary, examples of innovations and lessons to be learned. It was
co-organised by the Society for Computers and Law (SCL) and by Her
Majesty's Courts and Tribunal Service (HMCTS) which, in the UK, runs the
court service.
