Institute for CER) Constitutional Education and Research Inc. ARB, ADOSTI28M vu ‘The permanent Representative of nstitute for Constitutional and Rese Dear Ambassador, ‘The Institute was founded by a group of informed and concemed Australians after inputs from thousands of citizens. The common denominator to all complainants was easily identifiable. They had all been subjugated to British colonial law and they had no access to recourse by way of civil rights. (On examination it becomes clear that this was occurring because the Politicians and the Courts choose to ‘uphold colonial law, even though itis contrary to all aspects of domestic and international law, 50 as 10 preserve their own power base. Being aware of certain facts of history individuals have, onthe basis of a collection of original documents of history, entered into a concerted exercise to cause those assuming the power to govern and adjudicate ‘ver the people to bring about the adjustments necessary to correct the situation. However, Politicians Continue to make false statements while the Courts refuse to argue the postion ‘The only recourse now avaitable to the people is through the international community by way of an appeal for the upholding of the Charter of the United Nations with regard to the principle of self determination of all peoples. ‘Apart from that, all that is left isthe application of civil unrest under section 51 of the Charter of the United Nations. Such is the unrest across the nation that it is believed, in some quarters, that this will lead to civil war, {In short, it is known that in 1917 Britain promised Australia independence and that this was effected without fanfare in 1919, Australia became a member of the International Labour Organisation in 1919, ‘membership only being open to sovereign nations. In 1920 Australia became a Member State of the League of Nations, while in 1921 the British Government again declared Australia to be an independent nation. As such, in 1922 Australia refused a request from the United Kingdom for armed assistance with ‘egard to Kemal Ataturk. While in 1923 the British Government again confirmed that, as an independent ‘ation, Australia had the power to make international treaties. In 1926, it was declared that Australia was an independent nation state ofthe British Commonwealth of Nations and in 1931 the United Kingdom legislated that it no longer had legislative power over Australia, In 1945, Australia became a Member State of the United Nations. ‘Yet in 1999 we still have the same colonial system that we had in 1900 with the Politicians and judiciary providing verbal and signed allegiance to the Westminster Parliament, Hundreds of people across Australia have, in their own way, attempted to correct this long standing anomaly using every measure available to them short of actual civil wat. For their troubles many of them have had their lives and livelihoods destroyed. It is fair to say they are all angry. ‘The Institute is about assembling a documented record of both the historical facts and the contemporary attempts ofthe people to bring about a facility which will permit them to exercise their right to self determination {tis from this data that the founders ofthe Institute have chosen to compile and advance an appeal to the international community by way of the United Nations. We presonnd commend to you the document “AUSTRALIA the Concealed colony’.

AO037928M ICEsR wae 26 August 1999 Permanent Representative of ‘Subject: Document ‘AUSTRALIA the Concealed colony.’ Dear Ambassador, ‘The accompanying submission is offered, through you, tothe sovereign peoples of your Nation State by, and in the name of, the federated peoples which constitutes the Nation State, the Commonwealth of Australia. ‘This document amply illustrates that because the Parliament of the United Kingdom has failed to repeal its colonial tegisttion, ‘Are Act to Constitute the Commonwealth of Australia’ (UK) 1900, the sovercign people of ‘Australia have been denied, and continue to be denied, their right to self determination Instead the Australian people continue to be governed under exactly the same system of government and the same colonial law which was imposed on them by Britain in 1900. Indeed the document demonstrates that all members of the Australian Parliament and the Australian Senate have wom and subscribed to an oath of allegiance, not to their own nation, but to Queen Elizabeth 1! in the sovereignty of the United Kingdom! Italso illustrates that the powers of subjugation inherent in that Act of British law have been assumed by those same Parliamentary representatives as well as the organs of administration which the Parliament has, in turn, created. And that, indeed, through the persistent denial ofa right to access civil rights, those powers of subjugation have infact intensified. ‘The submission not only exposes the invalidity ofthe ‘Australian Government’ it also relates the persistent deceit and chicanery which has been entered into by individuals, both British and Australian, thatthe true state of affairs may be concealed from the ‘ordinary* citizen as well asthe world a large. ‘The document demonstrates that every available domestic avenue forthe rectification of the situation has b explored and tested. And that this persistence has even extended to the submission of an application and petition to the International Court of Justice. An application which could not proceed in the light of the United Kingdom's refusal to respond. itis now apparent that, short of violent action, the last resort open to the Australian people in their quest for self ation lies in an appeal to all Member States ofthe United Nations to honour their commitment under the This submission contains such an appeal along with sufficient information and supporting documentation to pernit the pleading of our cause. ‘This request is not made in the interests of any one section of the Australian community. ‘The submitted document represents, ina limited way, the collective efforts of many individuals and reflects the collective pain of a nation ‘Thus this introductory leter deserves to carry either 19 million signatures or none at all But such is protocol that it must be signed. And Peter Batten, being honoured by his fellow researchers, humbly is mark below. asta. = PO Box 9112 Tel (03) 8796 3861 Seaford Delivery Centre (03) 8796 3862 Seaford VIC 3198 Fax (03) 8796 3322A Submission in Two Volumes by the Sovereign People of Australia AUSTRALIA The Concealed colony!
