On Tue, Jan 5, 2026, the Australian House of Representatives approved new legislative measures aimed at addressing gun violence and hate crimes. These measures include a national gun buyback scheme, stricter gun license checks, and enhanced penalties for hate crimes.

The proposed legislation introduces new firearms regulations that involve comprehensive background checks for gun permits, incorporating input from intelligence services. The bill is anticipated to pass the Senate with support from the Greens, despite opposition from the conservative Liberal-National Coalition.

The anti-hate crime laws are expected to receive approval with backing from the Liberal Party. The reforms are part of a broader governmental strategy to counteract both the motivation and methods behind such crimes.

These legislative changes follow a mass shooting incident at a Jewish festival at Sydney’s Bondi Beach on Dec 14, 2025. The attack was reportedly inspired by the ISIL group. The government responded by convening an early parliamentary session to address these issues.

Home Affairs Minister Tony Burke emphasized the need for a comprehensive governmental response, stating the importance of countering both the ideology and access to means that facilitate such attacks.

The legislative package is pending approval from the Senate, which is expected to vote later in the day.
