Australia Royal Commission Recommends Security Enhancements
A commission is scheduled to release its interim report tomorrow regarding counterterrorism efforts. The report is understood to find weaknesses in Australia's counter-terrorism system and attempts. Dennis Richardson resigned from the Commission, stating he was treated as a well-paid researcher and feared he would have little influence on the findings. Some details of the report have already been leaked to the media. The Australian reports that the Commissioner will defer substantive findings regarding the actions of the National Intelligence agency. The report is expected to be made public through the federal government following the meeting. An interim report by the Royal Commission into Antisemitism and Social Cohesion has been released. The report covers findings related to social cohesion and antisemitism.
