===Australia=== The Bill of Rights 1689 remains a part of Australian law, however in some states the Bill has been re-enacted in local legislation.<ref>{{Cite journal |last=McDermott |first=Peter M. |date=1990-01-12 |title=Imperial Statutes in Australia and New Zealand |url=https://www.austlii.edu.au/au/journals/BondLawRw/1990/13.pdf |journal=Bond Law Review |volume=2 |issue=2}}</ref> The ninth article, regarding parliamentary freedom of speech, was inherited by [[Parliament of Australia|Federal Parliament]] in 1901 under section 49 of the [[Australian Constitution]]. It was incorporated into the ''Parliamentary Privileges Act 1987'' which "preserves the application of the traditional expression of this privilege, but spells out in some detail just what may be covered by the term 'proceedings in Parliament{{'"}}.<ref>{{cite news |title=Infosheet 5 - Parliamentary privilege |publisher=Parliament of Australia |url=https://www.aph.gov.au/About_Parliament/House_of_Representatives/Powers_practice_and_procedure/00_-_Infosheets/Infosheet_5_-_Parliamentary_privilege |access-date=16 August 2020}}</ref>
