 | | In 2001, the political campaign was dominated by issues of nonwhite immigration and national security and there still remains substantial anxiety among white Australians concerning Asian immigration. |  | | With this act of parliament, Australian law was made unequivocally the law in the nation, and the High Court of Australia was confirmed as the single highest court of appeal. |  | | The theoretical possibility of the British Parliament enacting laws to override the Australian Constitution was also removed. |

 | | Finally, the Constitution provided that any law of the Australian Parliament could be disallowed within a year by the British monarch (acting on the advice of British ministers), though this power was never in fact exercised. |  | | Also, the Constitution provided that the British monarch be represented in Australia by a Governor-General, who was originally appointed on the advice of the British, not the Australian, government, and was generally a British aristocrat. |  | | Also, their Governors, representing the monarch, were formally appointed on the advice of British ministers, though these increasingly merely relayed advice given to them by the Australian State Premiers. |

 | | Australia's policy of mandatory immigration detention for illegal arrivals was introduced in 1992, and has been maintained by successive governments. |  | | Immigration to the continent now called Australia began at least 40,000 years ago, when the ancestors of Australian Aborigines arrived via the islands of the Malay Archipelago and New Guinea. |  | | After World War II, Australia launched a massive immigration program, believing that having narrowly avoided a Japanese invasion, Australia must "populate or perish." Hundreds of thousands of displaced Europeans migrated to Australia. |
