10. Government
A. Overview
Government is the mechanism by which we, as a society, have responded, and responded relatively effectively, to the health threat posed by COVID-19 and to the economic threat posed by the response to COVID-19. This has involved the legislative imposition of new restrictions on the rights and interests of citizens and the conferral of new powers on governments, a situation that inevitably gives rise to disputes about the lawful and proper administration of government. The pandemic has also caused disruption to the daily functioning of government, to the employment conditions of the public service, and to government services such as transport and schools. Legislation has been enacted in each of these areas to mitigate that disruption.
The areas of law covered by this section are:
A. Obligations
B. Government administration
C. Public Service
D. Education
E. Transport
F. Utilities
B. Further resources
