This Government is doing whatever it takes to secure our borders; though offshore detention is costly and impractical, the most sweeping asylum reforms in a generation are being introduced.

Make all court and tribunal transcripts available free of charge - 199,910 Signatures
(Estimated Final Signatures: 222,343 - 142 added in the past 24hrs)

Make all court and tribunal transcripts available for free. Currently, fees can reach thousands, creating a "paywall" for justice. All legal records should be public property to help ensure transparency, allow for fair appeals, and support victims. Access to the law should not depend on wealth.
