  • After a spate of antisemitic attacks, Premier Chris Minns has commissioned his attorney-general to strengthen protections for religious institutions.

The New South Wales government is considering legislation to ban protests outside places of worship following an incident at the Great Synagogue in Sydney. This proposed law comes after a pro-Palestinian protest disrupted a service, leading to significant community and political backlash.
