Is the NSW Government’s enforcement of payment of tolls unconstitutional?


Our Principal, Adam Ly, appeared on Channel 7 News to provide his opinion on whether the requirement that road tolls be paid was unconstitutional.

Bob Jervis of Queenland argues that the imposition of toll charges is unconstitutional, on 2 basis (in short):

  • It creates a “new currency”;
  • The NSW Government cannot collect taxes already collected by the Federal Government.
