Human rights groups and Indigenous advocates have criticised the federal government for ignoring international pressure to raise the age of criminal responsibility.
Australia fronted the United Nations Human Rights Council in Geneva on Thursday evening, as part of the Universal Period Review which occurs every five years, thrusting its human rights record under the global spotlight.

In its statement to the human rights council, the government characterised immigration detention as âan essential component of effective border managementâ and said children were âdetained for the shortest practicable timeâ.
But McNeill said the governmentâs claim that Australia was committed to the human rights of refugees and asylum seekers was âabsurd so long as harmful offshore detention polices continue and people remain for years in immigration detentionâ.
