Joint Counter-Terrorism Training Proposed for Police and Military
The Turnbull Government has proposed changes to the Defense Act after reviewing how Australia responds to domestic terror incidents as well as analysing patterns of international terror incidents. The proposal covers the ADF becoming more involved in responding to terror incidents on Australian soil alongside counter-terrorism training in law enforcement.
The Daily discussed this with Dr. Adam Lockyer, Senior Lecturer from the Department of Security Studies and Criminology at Macquarie University.
