Businesses using personal information will face greater scrutiny next year as the federal privacy commissioner moves into enforcement mode. Privacy commissioner Malcolm Crompton has told businesses covered by the Act to have their privacy policies and practices in place by that date. While Mr Crompton had, to date, been focused on educating businesses about compliance, there would be a shift towards enforcement next year, Mr Dixon said. "Looking at the complaint levels there's no question that there are real concerns about privacy out there," he said. "The number of complaints to the commissioner has quadrupled. I suspect the commissioner will have to begin enforcing the law, otherwise people will say he's just a paper tiger."

Extractions: THE RIGHT TO SELF-DETERMINATION In todays world, there are more than 2000 thousand ethnic groups but only 192 states. When dominant ethnic groups ignore the socio-economic and cultural identity needs and rights of other peoples within the same state, demands for self-determination arise. Wars that threaten the stability of whole regions often result. within the context of just demands by those to whom it means the most. The Collected Papers address such questions as: The role of the UN in implementing just demands for self-determination
Extractions: The Sino-Indian frontier dispute of 1962 was a key part of my education in foreign affairs, even though I was largely a bystander. If I relate the details now, 40 years later, that is partly because they remain important in themselves. But even more importantly, they are also crucial to understanding the lying and duplicitous nature of Western foreign policies during the Cold War years. For much of 1962 I was the official directly in charge of Chinese affairs within the East Asia division of Australia's former department of external affairs. As a Chinese language speaker, I had previously been stationed in Hong Kong as second secretary for two years. At the time it was obvious that India was pursuing a forward policy in all three sections of the 'line of control' border with China. Posts and patrols were being pushed further and further into territory that seemed clearly to lie on the Chinese side of that border. Beijing was warning heavily that if the pressure continued, inevitably there would be conflict. I decided to look much more closely at the claims both sides were making to disputed territory.

Many groups and individuals have been active in promoting peace and respect for human rights in Israel and the Palestinian territories despite pressure from the Israeli government for them to cease a range of antiwar and human rights activities. For example, in June, the Women in Black succeeded in bringing together a whole spectrum of peace organizations , and thousands of people, to mark the 34th anniversary of the occupation, at the time of their weekly Friday vigil at France Square, Jerusalem. Similarly, on September 22, in a demonstration called by Gush Shalom, 200 demonstrated in Tel-Aviv against Sharon's plan to eliminate Yasser Arafat. Some groups have been working with international observers and activists, who in some cases, as in Nablis on June 30, have formed human shields to block Israeli military operations, though the Israelis have been increasingly denying entry to, and expelling, activists and observers from abroad. Israeli peace groups working with internationals include

Extractions: First Annual Canadian Peace Award Recipients and Canadian Peace Hall of Fame Inductee November 11, 2000 Introduction Awards will be presented in 12 major categories for Canadian achievements in building a Culture of Peace and Non-violence, at home and abroad. The presentations will also culminate in the first inductions into the Canadian Peace Hall of Fame to be housed at the Canadian Centres for Teaching Peace and on its web site at http://www.peace.ca . The Award categories will include peace achievements in government, business, the media, education, peacekeepers, peacebuilders in civil society, peace philanthropy, youth, and multi-cultural relations, to name a few. The Award will be in the form of an engraved, soapstone 'Inukshuk'. For millennia, massive stone figures built in the image of a human have stood silhouetted on the treeless Arctic horizons. Created by Inuit people, these Inukshuks serve as guides to point out a journey or a safe passage. The Canadian Centres for Teaching Peace believes this is a fitting Canadian symbol of the journey to safe and caring communities and world. We come together today in celebration of Peace Champions in Canada and the United Nations International Year for a Culture of Peace. Each one of us has an obligation to the memory of the many men and women who died for our peace and freedom, to today's millions of needless victims of violence at home and abroad, and to future generations to do everything we can to bring peace to the world and preserve the integrity of this planet. We know what to do, we just have to do it. The awards will stress everyone's responsibility and potential influence in building peace in our families, communities and world.
